प्रश्न

Explain the following reaction with a suitable example.

Hofmann elimination reaction

दीर्घउत्तर

उत्तर

  1. When tetraalkylammonium halide is heated with moist silver oxide, it gives quaternary ammonium hydroxide.
  2. Quaternary ammonium hydroxides on strong heating undergo β-elimination to give an alkene. This reaction is called Hofmann elimination.
  3. The least substituted alkene is obtained as a major product (in contrast to Saytzeff elimination).
    e.g. Hofmann elimination reaction of N, N, N-Triethylpropylammonium iodide
