What single reaction is needed to turn an alcohols into alkenes by removing (eliminating) a H2O
Elimination (dehydration) using reflux in the presence of sulphuric Acid (H2SO4) OR Phosphoric acid (H3PO4)
An alcohol can be dehydrated using reflux in the presence of sulphuric acid (H2SO4). What is the rule for elimination that determines whether the molecule can undergo an elimination reaction)
The Alcohol Carbon Must be bonded to Carbons with hydrogens that they can loose (to form a double bond)
