Tertiary react immediately, secondary takes about 5-10 minutes and primary alcohols do not react under standard conditions
zinc chloride...is strong acid
no changes
2-Methyl-1-propanol is a primary alcohol and so will not react with Lucas reagent at room temperature.Cyclopentanol is a secondary alcohol and so will react with Lucas reagent in 3-5 minutes (solution turns cloudy). Cyclopentyl chloride is the result.1-Methylcyclopentanol is a tertiary alcohol and so will react immediately with Lucas reagent to produce turbidity. 1-Chloro-1-methylcyclopentanol is the result.
The Lucas test is applicable for cyclohexanol. Cyclohexanol is a secondary alcohol and s reported to react with the Lucas reagent after a few minutes.
if it is a primary, secondary or tertiary alcohol
Lucas reagent is used to test for the presence of alcohols in a substance. It is made from anhydrous zinc chloride and concentrated hydrochloric acid.

balanced equation for ethanol and lucas reagent
Since 2-butanol is a secondary alcohol, it will form a cloudy precipitate after approximately 5-6 minutes.

methylhexanoic
It is used to distinguish between primary,secondary & tertiary alcohols

In a primary (1°) alcohol, only attached to one alkyl group; In a secondary (2°) alcohol, attached two alkyl groups & tertiary (3°) alcohol, attached three alkyl groups Actually, that person has you more confused. This is an easy way to remember what is 1 degree, 2 degree or 3 degree of Alcohols. 1 degree: R-- CH2 -- OH 2 degree: R2 -- CH -- OH 3 degree: R3 -- C -- OH R = CH3
First, my text says that the Lucas test is not applicable to compounds with six carbons or more. This is due to the solubility of the compound in the reagent. A compound with more than six carbons is to large to be dissolved in the reagent and therefore will not react in most cases.
Lucas' reagent is a solution of anhydrous zinc chloride in concentrated hydrochloric acid used to classify low molecular weights of alchohols. In 1930, this test became the standard method in qualitative organic chemistry.
