Question
How is the following conversion carried out?
\[\ce{Propene -> Propan-2-ol}\]
Advertisements
Solution
If propene is allowed to react with water in the presence of an acid as a catalyst, then propan-2-ol is obtained.
\[\begin{array}{cc}
\ce{\underset{Propene}{CH3 - CH = CH2}->[H2O/H+][\Delta]CH3 - CH - CH3}\\
\phantom{........................................}|\\
\phantom{...........................................}\ce{\underset{Propan-2-ol}{OH}}\\
\end{array}\]
