Identify the alcohol that react immediately with Lucas reagent?
- A Ethanol
- B Butan-2-ol
- C 2-Methyl Propan-2-ol
- D Propan-2-ol
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) 2-Methyl Propan-2-ol
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Tertiary carbocation is far more stable than secondary carbocation, and primary carbocation is least stable due to hyper formation.
Hence, tertiary alcohol reacts fastest with Lucas reagent at room temperature, \(2-\)methyl propan\(-2-\)ol is a tertiary alcohol, thus reacts immediately with Lucas reagent.
Hence, tertiary alcohol reacts fastest with Lucas reagent at room temperature, \(2-\)methyl propan\(-2-\)ol is a tertiary alcohol, thus reacts immediately with Lucas reagent.
