Match the procedural step to its purpose by matching each step in the written procedure for the reaction of 2-naphthol with 1-bromobutane in strong base. a. Prevent ethanol from bumping violently when heated.
b. Deprotonate the alcohol to become a good nucleophile.
c. Avoid boiling away solvent in an open environment.
d. Isolate the ether product by leveraging its low solubility In water and ability to be isolated by precipitation.
e. Get an accurate weight of the solid by making sure it is completely dry.

1. The contents of the reaction flask are poured into ice.
2. The residue is not removed from the Büchner filter immediately after filtration.
3. Boiling chips or a stir bar are added to the round bottom flask prior to the reaction being heated under reflux.
4. Solid sodium hydroxide is added to 2-naphthol with heating.
5. The flask is fitted with a condenser and heated for twenty minutes.

explanation:

two years ago, when picking flowers in the mountains back of yosemite valley, i found a book. it was blotted and storm-beaten; all of its outer pages were mealy and crumbly. the paper seemed to dissolve like the snow beneath which it had been buried, however; many of the inner pages were well preserved. and although all were more or less stained and torn, whole chapters were easily readable. this is the condition of the great open book of yosemite glaciers today; its granite pages have been torn and blurred by the same storms that wasted the castaway book.
