HI
Advertisements
Solution
When D-glucose is heated with HI for a long time, n-hexane is formed.
\[\begin{array}{cc}
\ce{CHO}\phantom{...............................................}\\
|\phantom{..................................................}\\
\ce{(CHOH)4 ->[HI][\Delta] \underset{n-hexane}{CH3 - CH2 - CH2 - CH2 - CH2 - CH3}}\\
|\phantom{..................................................}\\
\ce{\underset{{D-glucose}}{CH2OH}}\phantom{..........................................}
\end{array}\]
