Draw the major product formed when 1-ethoxyprop-1-ene is heated with one equivalent of HI

Answer»

Solution :
This reaction follows `SN^(1)` MECHANISM because in this reaction the more stable carbocation is formed that is double bonded carbocation. THEREFORE, the given molecule reacts with HI to form ETHANOL and 1-iodo prop-1-ene.
`CH_(3)-CH=CH-O-C_(2)H_(5) overset(HI//Delta)(RARR)underset(("1-iodo prop-1-ene"))(CH_(3)-CH=CH-I)+underset(("ethanol"))(C_(2)H_(5)OH)`
