Question

Draw the product formed when 2-butanol undergoes reaction with TsCl and Et3N. CH3C6H4SO2Cl.

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

In organic chemistry, the reaction between 2-butanol with TsCl and Et3N is known as the tosylation of the alcohol hydroxyl group. Alcohol is being changed to tosylate by the use of tosyl chloride under the influence of a base. Tosylation of alcohol is an example of a nucleophilic substitution reaction. From the image attached below, we will see how the reaction between 2-butanol proceed into the product by using tosyl chloride and a base(Et3N).
