Solving a Reaction Problem If you had 3g of 4-chlorobenzoic acid dissolved in ether, how many ml of a 4M NaOH solution would be needed to react with it all?
Write a suitable mechanism for the cleavage of butyl isopropyl ether with HI at 100 degrees Celsius to form exclusively isopropyl alcohol and 1-iodobutane. Explain why butyl alcohol and isoproplyl iodide are not formed in the reaction.
