1. Reactions of Alcohols • Reaction Summary: • 4. Hydration: Alkene + water --> alcohol • 7. Dehydration: Alcohol + heat --> alkene + H2 • 8. Oxidation: Pri. Alcohol + (O) --> aldehyde • 9. Oxidation: Sec. Alcohol + (O) --> ketone • 9B. Oxidation: Tert. Alcohol + (O) --> no reaction • 10.Oxidation: Aldehyde + (O) --> Acid • 11. Ether Synthesis: Alcohol + alcohol --> ether + HOH

2. 4. Hydration Reaction • Alkene + HOH --> alcohol • HOH molecule adds to carbons with double bond.

3. 7. Dehydration of Alcohol to Alkene • Subtraction: Remove -OH from alcohol carbon • Remove -H from a neighbor carbon
