Reactions of Alcohols - Coggle Diagram

- - - - sulfuric/phosphoric acid
- - - - alcohol + oxygen
        
        broken
  - - - readily combust in presence of O2
      - form CO2 and H2O
      - flammable with a low ignition temp
  - - - due to excess O2 available
  - - - carbon monoxide, soot
    - - CO(g) and C(s)
- - - - can be further oxidised
        
        to carboxylic acids
  - - - do not get oxidised further
  - - - dichromate ions are orange
        
        when oxidised
        
        chromate ions (Cr3+)
        
        green
- - - - bonds with H+
        
        form water
    - - with halogen atom 'X'
  - - - determine primary, secondary, tertiary alcohols
    - - anhydrous ZnCl2
      - concentrated HCl solution
    - - chloroalkane + water - cloudy
    - - primary
        
        greater than 6 mins
      - secondary
        
        2-5 mins
      - tertiary
        
        less than 1 min
