(e) For the 1,1-dimethylpropyl cation to be formed by a process involving a hydride shift, the starting alcohol must have the same carbon skeleton as the 1,1-dimethylpropyl cation. Although the same carbon skeleton is necessary, it alone is not sufficient; the alcohol must also have its hydroxyl group on the carbon atom adjacent to the carbon that bears the migrat- ing hydrogen. Thus, 3-methyl-1-butanol cannot form a tertiary carbocation by a single hy- dride shift. It requires two sequential hydride shifts. ( f ) 2,2-Dimethyl-1-propanol can yield a tertiary carbocation by a process involving a methyl shift. 5.36 (a) Heating an alcohol in the presence of an acid catalyst (KHSO4) leads to dehydration with formation of an alkene. In this alcohol, elimination can occur in only one direction to give a mixture of cis and trans alkenes.
