Chapter 4.SE, Problem 62AP
Alcohols undergo an oxidation reaction to yield carbonyl compounds on treatment with CrO3. For example, 2-tert-butylcyclohexanol gives 2-tert-butylcyclohexanone. If axial –OH groups are generally more reactive than their equatorial isomers, which do you think reacts faster, the cis isomer of 2-tert-butylcyclohexanol or the trans isomer? Explain.
