When ethanol is heated in the presence of an acid catalyst, ethene and water form; an elimination reaction occurs. When butan-2-ol is heated under similar conditions, two alkenes form (although not in equal quantities). Write the structures and IUPAC names of these two alkenes.
Draw the product(s) of the following reactions. CH3CH2-C≡C-CH2CH3 Lindlar catalyst Consider E/Z stereochemistry of alkenes. If no reaction occurs, draw the organic starting material. Draw one structure per sketcher. Add additional sketchers using the drop-down menu in the bottom right corner. Separate multiple products using the + sign from the drop-down menu.
