Show how the following compounds can be synthesized from cyclohexanol.
complete the following syntheses
Isoamyl acetate (also known as isopentyl acetate) is an ester that is referred to as “banana flavor” due to its odor that resembles that of banana. It can be synthesized from isopentyl alcohol and acetic acid via nucleophilic acyl substitution mechanism. Propose a mechanism for the synthesis of isoamyl acetate from acetic acid and isoamyl alcohol.

Where Phosphoric acid donates a proton ((H^+)) to the hydroxyl group of cyclohexanol, forming a protonated cyclohexanol intermediate. • The protonated cyclohexanol undergoes dehydration, leading to the removal of a water molecule and the formation of cyclohexene. • The released proton combines with water to form hydronium ion (H3O+), regenerating the catalyst. The mechanism should illustrate the acid-catalyzed dehydration process, where phosphoric acid facilitates the removal of water from cyclohexanol, resulting in the formation of cyclohexene.arrow_forward
