(boiling points, solubility) and intermolecular forces
4.4
Combustion of alcohols,
enthalpies of combustion and use as fuels
4.5
Controlled oxidation
of alcohols with selected oxidising
agents
4.6
Miscellaneous reactions with: (1) metallic sodium, (2) acid
chlorides, (iii) carboxylic acids
4.7

4.9
Examples of uses
of alcohols
Alcohol reaction
mechanisms
The following notes have
basic reaction conditions, reagents and general equations as well as
detailed notes on the mechanisms indicated
(overlap because they were written before above sections 4.2 to 4.8 were
compiled)
Conversion of an alcohol to a halogenoalkane
mechanism
Elimination of water from an
alcohol to give an alkene [acid catalysed, E1 and E2 mechanisms]
Esterification of acid
chlorides with alcohols
to give an ester mechanism
