Reaction schemes
1) Propene can be reacted with water in the presence of acid to form a major product (A) and a minor
product (B).
• A is oxidised to form product C.
• B is oxidised to form product D.
• When D is reacted with SOCl2, it forms product E.
• When D is reacted with alcohol B, it forms an ester G.
• When D is reacted with alcohol A, it forms ester H, which is an isomer of G.
• When E is reacted with alcoholic ammonia, it forms product F.
• When E is reacted with water, it forms product D.
