When allyl alcohol reacts with concentrated HCl at $100\,^{\circ}\text{C}$, $\text{CH}_2{=}\text{CHCH}_2\text{Cl}$ is produced. State as fully as you can what type of reaction this is.
When allyl alcohol is reacted with $\text{MnO}_2$ at room temperature, $\text{CH}_2{=}\text{CHCHO}$ is formed. What type of reaction is this?
Allyl alcohol acts both as a primary alcohol and as an alkene. Give the structural formula of the organic product formed when allyl alcohol is reacted separately with each of the reagents below.
Allyl alcohol undergoes the reactions below.
Allyl alcohol can be changed into propanal in two steps: $\text{CH}_2{=}\text{CHCH}_2\text{OH} \rightarrow \text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{OH} \rightarrow \text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{CHO}$.
What reagents and conditions should be used for each step? Give the reagent(s) and condition(s) for step I and step II.
Allyl alcohol and propanal are isomers. What form of isomerism do they show?
Allyl alcohol can also be turned into propanal using a ruthenium(IV) catalyst in water: $\text{CH}_2{=}\text{CHCH}_2\text{OH} \rightarrow \text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{CHO}$. Suggest what is unusual about this single-step reaction.
