General Methods of Preparation of Alcohols 1. Hydrolysis of Halides
Alkyl halides when boiled with an aqueous solution of an alkali hydroxide give alcohol through nucleophilic substitution mechanism.
R-X + KOH → R-OH + KX
This general procedure produces primary and secondary alcohols. Glycerol can be synthesized from propylene by a series of reactions including the hydrolysis of a halide as one step in the process.
2. Hydration of Alkanes
Direct hydration takes place by adding water in the presence of a catalyst.
