I need to get propene from 1-butanol.
What reagents can I use to remove the alcohol and then also reduce from 4 Carbon atoms to 3 Carbons?
Thanks!
You can oxidize the alcohol to the carboxylic acid and decarboxylate to get a three carbon chain.
You can then halogenate the propane, and dehydrohalogenate it to propene.
