Textbook QuestionWould you expect the reactivity of a five-membered ring ether such as tetrahydrofuran [TABLE 10.2] to be more similar to the reactivity of an epoxide or to the reactivity of a noncyclic ether? Why?473views
Textbook QuestionIn the presence of 18-crown-6, potassium permanganate dissolves in benzene to give 'purple benzene,' a useful reagent for oxidizing alkenes in an aprotic environment. Use a drawing of the complex to show why KMnO4 dissolves in benzene and why the reactivity of the permanganate ion is enhanced.1229views
Textbook Question(A true story.) An inexperienced graduate student moved into a laboratory and began work. He needed some diethyl ether for a reaction, so he opened an old, rusty 1-gallon can marked 'ethyl ether' and found there was half a gallon left. To purify the ether, the student set up a distillation apparatus, started a careful distillation, and went to the stockroom for the other reagents he needed. While he was at the stockroom, the student heard a muffled 'boom.' He quickly returned to his lab to find a worker from another laboratory putting out a fire. Most of the distillation apparatus was embedded in the ceiling. (a) Explain what probably happened. (b) Explain how this near-disaster might have been prevented.480views
