In the Williamson ether synthesis, an alkoxide ion reacts with an alkyl give an to halide ether R-O- + R-x rightarrow R-O-R + X^- To prepare sec-butyl propyl ether by this synthesis, is it better to use sec-butoxide ion and propyl chloride or propoxide ion and sec-butyl chloride? Explain your answer.
1. Unsymmetrical ethers can be made by
the Williamson synthesis, in which an alkoxide ion reacts with an
alkyl bromide. Draw the structure of the alkoxide and the alkyl
bromide needed to produce 2-ethoxy-2-methylpropane (a.k.a t-butyl
ethyl ether), shown below. Show charges where appropriate.
2. What nucleophile could be used to
react with butyl iodide to prepare the following compound?
Could the Williamson Ether synthesis be carried out using any type of alkyl halide? Why/why not. Draw the mechanism for the Williamson Ether reaction using bromoethane and t-butyl bromide and relate it to your answer.
