Consider the synthesis of tert-amyl chloride (2-chloro-2-methylbutane) from 2-methyl-2-butanol and HCl which has SN1 reaction.

Explain if a SN1 reaction would occur if the following(below) was changed. If an SN1 does occur, then state the IUPAC name of the product formed and compare the rate of reaction to the rate of the original reaction . In the event that SN1 does not occur, state the type of reaction that may occur and draw all the major products that could be formed.

a) we replaced 2-methyl-2-butanol with 2-butanol

b) we replaced 2-methyl-2-butanol with 2-methylbut-3-en-2-ol

During work up of the SN1 reaction, the organic product separates from the aqueous layer upon standing in a separatory funnel. State whether the organic product forms the upper or lower layer and briefly explain your choice. The SN1 treatment involves treatment of 2-methyl-2 butanol with HCL to synthesize 2-chloro-2-methylbutane

What are some possible sources of error that can occur during an SN1 reaction from a synthesis of an alkyl halide from an alcohol lab? In specfifc 2-chloro-2-butane was synthesized from an alcohol (concentrated hydrochloric acid) and a reaction involving 2-methyl-2-butanol and HCl created 2-chloro-2-methylbutene. Thank you!
