    Ethers from Alcohols: Alcohol Dehydration and Williamson Ether Synthesis

    Overview
    Ethers can be prepared from organic compounds by various methods. Some of them are discussed below,
    Preparation of Ethers by Alcohol Dehydration
    In this method, in the presence of protic acids, alcohol dehydrates to produce alkenes and ethers under different conditions. For example, in the presence of sulphuric acid, dehydration of ethanol at 413 K yields ethoxyethane, whereas it yields ethene at 443 K.
    Autoxidation of Ethers to Peroxides and Hydroperoxides02:23

    Autoxidation of Ethers to Peroxides and Hydroperoxides

    Ethers represent a class of chemical compounds that become more dangerous with prolonged storage because they tend to form explosive peroxides when standing in the air. Autoxidation is the spontaneous oxidation of a compound in air. In the presence of oxygen, ethers slowly oxidize to form hydroperoxides and dialkyl peroxides.

    Acid-Catalyzed Dehydration of Alcohols to Alkenes

    In a dehydration reaction, a hydroxyl group in an alcohol is eliminated along with the hydrogen from an adjacent carbon. Here, the products are an alkene and a molecule of water. Dehydration of alcohols is generally achieved by heating in the presence of an acid catalyst. While the dehydration of primary alcohols requires high temperatures and acid concentrations, secondary and tertiary alcohols can lose a water molecule under relatively mild conditions.
