Question
Chapter 15.17, Problem 38P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Mechanism for proton exchange of an alcohol in an aqueous base has to be proposed.
Concept introduction:
Proton exchange basically means the transfer of a proton from one place to another in a molecule. An acid or a base catalyze the reaction of exchange of protons. For example, the rate of proton exchange of an alcohol is increased if a small amount of an acid or base is added to it. A rapidly exchanged proton does not cause splitting and is observed as a singlet in the

Where Phosphoric acid donates a proton ((H^+)) to the hydroxyl group of cyclohexanol, forming a protonated cyclohexanol intermediate. • The protonated cyclohexanol undergoes dehydration, leading to the removal of a water molecule and the formation of cyclohexene. • The released proton combines with water to form hydronium ion (H3O+), regenerating the catalyst. The mechanism should illustrate the acid-catalyzed dehydration process, where phosphoric acid facilitates the removal of water from cyclohexanol, resulting in the formation of cyclohexene.arrow_forward
