2-Ethoxy-2,3-dimethylbutane reacts with concentrated aqueous HI to form two initial organic products (A and B). Further reaction with HI produces organic product C from product B. Draw the structures of these three products.

Respuesta :

Answer:

A = 2-iodo-2,3-dimethylbutane

B = Ethanol

C = Iodoethane (also called ethyl-iodide)

Explanation:

2-Ethoxy-2,3-dimethylbutane reacts with conc. HI to cleave the oxy-functional group.

On one end, ethanol is formed and on the other hand, 2-iodo-2,3-dimethylbutane is formed.

But ethanol reacts further with conc HI to give iodoethane.

Therefore,

A = 2-iodo-2,3-dimethylbutane

B = Ethanol

C = Iodoethane (also called ethyl-iodide)

This is all shown in the attached image.

Hope this Helps!!!
