R-choh-ch3 +h2so4 -> R-ch=ch2

R-ch=ch2 + HBr -> R-ch2-ch2Br

R-ch2-ch2Br + H2O -> R-ch2-ch2oh + HBr

What is the oxidation of alcohol?

Oxidation of a primary alcohol results in an Aldahyde, 2 molecules of primary alcohol oxidized results in an ether, oxidization of a secondary alcohol end product is a ketone.

Is an cyclohexanol primary or secondary alcohol?

Yes. Any compound containing an R-OH group will have a name ending in "ol". These are all alcohols.


How do you convert secondary alcohol to tertiary alcohol?

A secondary alcohol can be converted to a tertiary alcohol by subjecting it to an acid-catalyzed rearrangement reaction known as a pinacol rearrangement. In this process, the secondary alcohol undergoes a rearrangement to form a more stable tertiary alcohol through a carbocation intermediate.


Can C3H6O be a secondary alcohol?

Methanol is a primary alcohol. You can't have a secondary alcohol until you get to propanol, where 1-propanol is a primary alcohol and 2-propanol is a secondary alcohol (also called sec-propyl alchohol or isopropanol). Secondary alcohols are alcohols where the -OH group is attached to a carbon that has two carbon groups attached to it. The first tertiary alcohol is t-butyl alcohol, otherwise known as 2-methyl-2-propanol. In that molecule the -OH group is attached to a carbon that has three carbon groups attached to it.

Is ethanol primary or secondary alcohol?

In order to be a secondary alcohol, the carbon with the alcohol moiety must be bonded to two other carbons. There are only two carbons total in ethanol, so it cannot possibly be a secondary alcohol. The smallest/lowest molecular weight secondary alcohol is cyclopropanol, which has three carbons: one for the alcohol group, and two others for it to be bonded to.


What is the application of oxidizing a secondary alcohol?

the application is that we can get ketones by this method.


Is a example of a secondary consumer a cow eating grass?

No- a cow is a primary consumer. Primary consumers are herbivores that convert plant biomass.


Compare the relative ease of oxidation of primary secondary and tertiary butyl alcohol toward acid dichromate based on the time required for the solution to change color?

primary alcohols react the fastest, with secondary alcohols next and tertiary alcoholsnot reacting at all. This is because the mechanism of this reaction is Sn1 which is a substituion reaction that favors attack on less crowded molecules


Why does secondary alcohol react with potassium permanganate more quickly than primary alcohol?

Because a primary alcohol oxidation is a two step process. First going to an aldehyde then to a carboxylic acid. A secondary alcohol is a one step process that produces a ketone.
