Chapter 20.6, Problem 20.10P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The synthesis of allyl phenyl ether and 2-butenyl phenyl ether from phenol and appropriate alkenyl halides have to be shown.

Concept Introduction:

Williamson ether synthesis:

It is the reaction in which an alkoxide or phenoxide ion reacts with an organohalide via SN2 reaction to synthesis ether. The alkoxide or phenoxide ion can be obtained by the deprotonation of an alcohol or a phenol respectively using a base such as NaOH.
