Give the mechanism of the following reaction:
\[\ce{CH3CH2OH ->[H2SO4][413 K] CH3CH2-O-CH2CH3 + H2O}\]

उत्तर
\[\ce{CH3CH2OH ->[H2SO4][413 K] \underset{Diethylether}{CH3CH2-O-CH2CH3} + H2O}\]
Mechanism: The formation of ether is a nucleophilic bimolecular reaction SN2 involving the attack of alcohol molecules on protonated alcohol as below:
(1) \[\ce{CH3CH2 - \underset{\bullet\bullet}{\overset{\bullet\bullet}{O}} - H + H+ -> CH3CH2 -^+ \underset{\bullet\bullet}{\overset{\ce{H}}{\overset{\bullet\bullet}{O}}} - H}\]
(2)
(3) \[\begin{array}{cc}
\ce{CH3CH2-\overset{+}{O}-CH2CH3 -> CH3CH2-O-CH2CH3 + H^+}\\
|\phantom{..................................}\\
\ce{H}\phantom{..................................}
\end{array}\]
\[\ce{H^+ + HSO^Θ_4 -> H2SO4}\]
