Answer:

Consider the reaction between an alcohol and tosyl chloride, followed by a nucleophile. Write the condensed formula of the expected main organic product.

CH3CH2CH2OH---------- 2.CI 1.TsCl,pyridine__________

Explanation:

Given alcohol is propanol.

When it reacts with TsCl, the hydrogen in -OH group is replaced with tosyl group.

Pyridine is a weak base and it neutralizes the HCl (acid) formed during the reaction.

The reaction is shown below:
