Write the mechanism of hydration of ethene to yield ethanol.
Advertisements
उत्तर १
Step 1: Protonation of the alkene to form a carbocation by the electrophilic attack of H3O+.
\[\ce{H2O + H+ -> H3O+}\]
Step 2: Nucleophilic attack of water on carbocation.
Step 3: Deprotonation to form an alcohol.
उत्तर २
The acid-catalysed hydration of ethene may be represented as:
The mechanism followed by the above reaction may be depicted as:
Step 1: Generation of carbocation: Protonation of ethene yields a carbocation as,
Step 2: Nucleophilic attack of water on carbocation: The carbocation polarises the lone pair electrons of O of water, and hydration takes place.
Step 3: Formation of product, regeneration of the proton:
