Bromoethane hydrolysis

C2H5Br+H2O→CH3CH2OH+HBr (reaction condition is an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide)

The essence of the elimination reaction of bromoethane

CH3CH2Br–→CH2=CH2↑+HBr

The reaction condition is an alcohol solution of sodium hydroxide (usually ethanol), that is, NaOH/alcohol

In some cases, the reaction of HBr and NaOH can also be added.

Namely: CH3CH2Br+NaOH—→CH2=CH2↑+NaBr+H2O

The condition is also in alcohol solution.

NaOH is not a catalyst, but a reactant involved in the reaction. The elimination first produces HBr, NaOH+HBr=NaBr+H2O, which is neutralized by NaOH, so NaOH is the reactant, and ethanol is the catalyst.

The reaction mechanism is as follows:

CH3CH2-X + :B → CH3CH(Br)-H…B Attacks β-hydrogen by a strong base to form a transition state.

CH3CH(Br)-H…B → CH2=CH2 + HB The bond breaks, and at the same time a carbon-carbon double bond is formed.
