Question

Apply the Skill 08.25 Under acid-catalyzed conditions, epoxides can be opened by a variety of nucleophiles other than water, such as alcohols. In such a case, the nucleophile will generally attack at the more substituted position. Using this information, predict the products for each of the following reactions: Get help answering Molecular Drawing questions. x Your answer is incorrect.

Answer 1

1) mCPBA 2) [H2S04] OH OH он products Explanation: Reaction of alkene with mCPBA produces epoxide as product. opening of epoxide with alcohol in presence of acid catalyst produces more substituted ether as product.
