Passage / Comprehension
Alcohols are converted to tosylates by treatment with p-toluene sulfonyl chloride (TsCl) in presence of pyridine. This overall process converts a poor leaving group (OH- ) into better one (-OTS ). A tosylate is a better leaving group because its conjugated acid p-toluene sulfonic acid is strong acid.
Because alkyl tosylates have better leaving tendency they undergo both nucleophilic substitution and β- elimination.
