Alcohols are compounds of the general formula ROH, where R is any alkyl
or substituted alkyl group. The group may be primary, secondary, or tertiary; it may
be open-chain or cyclic; it may contain a double bond, a halogen atom, or an
aromatic ring. All alcohols- contain the hydroxyl (-OH) group, which, as the
functional group, determines the properties characteristic of this family. Variations in
structure of the R group may affect the rate at which the alcohol undergoes certain
reactions, and even, in a few cases, may affect the kind of reaction. Compounds in
which the hydroxyl group is attached directly to an aromatic ring are not alcohols;
they are phenols, and differ so markedly from the alcohols that we shall consider
them in a separate chapter (Morrisson, 2002: 492).
In the dehydration of alcohols, the H and OH are lost from adjacent carbons.
An acid catalyst is necessary. Before dehydrogenation of ethane became the
dominant method, ethylene was prepared by heating ethyl alcohol with sulfuric acid.
Other alcohols behave similarly. Secondary alcohols undergo elimination at lower
temperatures than primary alcohols, and tertiary alcohols at lower temperatures than
secondary alcohols. For example cyclohxanol with H2SO4 in 140⁰C will form
cyclohexene and water. H2SO4 and phosphoric acid (H3PO4) are the acids most
frequently used in alcohol dehydrations. Potassium hydrogen sulfate (KHSO4) is also
often used (Carey, 2011: 182).
The dehydration of alcohols and the conversion of alcohols to alkyl halides
by treatment with hydrogen halides are similar in two important ways:
1. Both reactions are promoted by acids.
2. The relative reactivity of alcohols decreases in the order tertiary
secondary primary.
These common features suggest that carbocations are key intermediates in alcohol
dehydration, just as they are in the conversion of alcohols to alkyl halides. A three-
step mechanism for the sulfuric acid-catalyzed dehydration of tert-butyl alcohol.
Steps 1 and 2 describe the generation of tert-butyl cation by a process similar to that
which led to its formation as an intermediate in the reaction of tert-butyl alcohol with
hydrogen chloride. Step 3 is new to us and is the step in which the double bond is
formed. Step 3 is an acid-base reaction in which the carbocation acts as a Brønsted
acid, transferring a proton to a Brønsted base (water). This is the property of
carbocations that is of the most significance to elimination reactions. Carbocations
are strong acids; they are the conjugate acids of alkenes and readily lose a proton to
form alkenes. Even weak bases such as water are sufficiently basic to abstract a
proton from a carbocation. As noted earlier primary carbocations are too high in
energy to be intermediates in most chemical reactions (Carey, 2011: 185).
Dehydration-dehydrogenation of cyclohexanol was carried out using a down-
flow, fixed bed reactor of 8 mm internal diameter at atmospheric pressure. The
catalyst (0.1 g) was pretreated in the reactor at 300°C for 2 hrs. Oxygen was then
passed through the catalytic bed and followed by feeding of the reactant at the flow
rate of 6 mL hr-1. The reaction was carried out at 300°C for 1 hr. The product in
liquid form was collected at the bottom of the reactor and analyzed by a Hewlett
Packard Model 5880A gas chromatography with Flame Ionization Detector (FID).
Analysis was carried out from 40-200°C at the heating rate of 10°/ min by using
Phase AT-WAX capillary column (Man, 2005: 45).
According to Marrison (2002: 523) alcohols react readily with hydrogen
halides to yield alkyl halides and water. The reaction is carried out either by passing
the dry hydrogen halide gas into the alcohol, or by heating the alcohol with the
concentrated aqueous acid. The least reactive of the hydrogen halides, HC1, requires
the presence of zinc chloride for reaction with primary and secondary alcohols; on
the other hand, the very reactive ter-butyl alcohol is converted to the chloride by
simply being shaken with concentrated hydrochloric acid at room temperature. For
example:
The direct release of the hydroxy group produces benzene along with H2O
and the double bond hydrogenation of the aromatic ring produces a cyclohexanol
intermediate, and then cyclohexene is formed. The hydrogenation reaction continues
to form cyclohexane (Putri, 2016: 170).

H. DISCUSSION
Alkena, atau biasa disebut olefin, adalah hidrokarbon yang mengandung ikatan
rangkap karbon C = C. Secara detail pada reaksi alkena yang paling luas dan paling
umum, reaksi adisi elektrofilik (McMurry, 2011: 78). Pada percobaan ini
sikloheksanol dehidrasi menjadi sikloheksena. Sikloheksena ini dibuat dengan
menggunakan H2SO4 sebagai katalis. Larutan sikloheksanol yang tidak berwarna lalu
ditambhakan H2SO4 yang juga tidak berwarna. Setelah penambahan H2SO4 larutan
dikocok agar homogen dan kemudian larutan berubah menjadi warna hitam. Setelah
itu larutan kemudian didestilasi dengan menambahkan batu didih sebelumnya pada
larutan, batu didih berfungsi untuk mengurangi letupan pada saat pemanasan.
Adapun tujuan dari destilasi ini ialah untuk memisahan zat cair dari campurannya
berdasarkan perbedaan titik didih atau berdasarkan kemapuan zat untuk menguap.
Sikloheksena memiliki titik didih yang paling kecil, sehingga sikloheksena pertama
kali menetes sebagai destilat. Sedangkan selain sikloheksena seperti air dan
sikloheksanol yang titik didihnya lebih besar akan menguap. Destilasi dilakukan
pada suhu diatas 1000C hingga hasil destilasi atau destilat tertampung. Kemudian
destilat dimasukkan ke dalam corong pisah untuk memisahkan dua komponan
larutan. Pada corong pisah akan terbentuk dua lapisan, dimana lapisan atas
merupakan sikloheksena dan lapisan bawah adalah air, hal ini disebabkan karena
larutan memiliki massa jenis yang berbeda, diaman sikloheksena memiliki massa
jenis lebih rendah dari air yaitu 0,811 g/mL sedangkan air memiliki massa jenis 1
g/mL kemudian lapisan bawah dibuang. Setelah corong tinggal berisi larutan
sikloheksena, larutan tersebut ditambahkan dengan aquades untuk menetralkan
larutan dan lapisan bawah. Setelah itu sikloheksena ditambahkan natrium bikarbonat
yang berbentuk kemudian dikocok, hal ini bertujuan untuk menetralkan sisa-sisa
asam dari katalis H2SO4 lalu kembali dimasukkan air untuk memisahkan sisa-sisa air
dari campuran lalu lapisan bawah dibuang.
Larutan sikoheksena kemudian dipindahkan pada Erlenmeyer dan ditambahkan
dengan MgO, adapun fungsi MgO ini untuk menyerap sisa-sisa air karena sifatnya
yang anhidrat. Larutan kemudia dikocok dan disaring menggunakan corong biasa
yang telah dilapisi dengan kertas saring agar larutan sikoheksena terbentuk
sepenuhnya dan dari percobaan larutan sikloheksena yang dihasilkan ialah 7 mL. dan
dilakukan perhitungan % rendamen. Perhitungan rendamen beetujuan unutk
menghitung kuantitas sikloheksena yang diperoleh dengan membandingkan dengan
teori. Persen rendamen yang dihasilkan ialah 34,7% yang berarti hanya 34,7%
larutan sikloheksena yang dihasilkan dari teori. Untuk menguji ketidakjenuhan dari
sikloheksena dilakukan dua uji, yaitu uji dengan KMnO4 dan H2SO4. Pada
penambahan H2SO4 larutan tetap tidak berwarna. Pada penambahan KMnO4 yang
awalnya berwarna uangu kemudian ditambah dengan larutan sikloheksena terbentuk
larutan yang berwarna coklat dan terdapat endapan yang berarti sikloheksena
teroksidasi dengan adapun reaksinya sebagai berikut:
