Preparation of alcohol
  • 1 answers

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.
