Design an Experiment with Elimination of Secondary Halide
I need help designing an experiment using a secondary halide, 2-bromohexane or 2-bromoheptane as the beginning material. I know that the things I need to do are use NaOH, -OH, and CH3OH to come up with the products of an alkene and secondary alcohol. I need specfic reactions, materials, and procedures. I then plan to use GC/Mass Spec to analyze the products.
My professor said that it may have something to do with running it at a certain temperature for a certain amount of time. I will then add ether/H2O, dry ether soln, and continue the reaction from there. I need to know the mechanisms of this Elimination reaction...or a guide to what is happening.
My Professor also said that I can suggest another chemistry experiment to research in chemistry and conduct an experiment on....any suggestions?
Thanks so much! All the amount to detail is appreciated as well as any internet sites I can look at!!
