To convert butan-1-ol to 3-chlorobutane-2-ol, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Dehydration of Butan-1-ol - **Reaction**: Treat butan-1-ol with concentrated sulfuric acid (H2SO4). - **Process**: The concentrated sulfuric acid will remove a water molecule (dehydration), leading to the formation of butene (an alkene). - **Structure**: The resulting butene will have a double bond between the first and second carbon atoms. ### Step 2: Hydroboration-Oxidation ...
