Symmetrically substituted epoxides give the same products in both the acid catalysed and base catalyzed ring opening. An unsymmetrical epoxide gives different products under acid catalysed and base catalysed conditions. Under basic conditions, the alkoxide ion simply attacks the less hindered carbon atom in an 2 displacement. Under acidic conditions, the alcohol, attacks the protonated epoxide

Structure II and III show that the oxirane carbon share part of positive charge. The tertiary carbon bear a larger part of positive charge and it is more strongly electrophilic. The bond between tertiary carbon and oxygen is weaker implying a lower transition state energy for attack at the tertiary carbon. Attack by the weak nucleophilic is sensitive to the strength of electrophilic is sensitive to the strength of electrophile. Centre attack takes place at more electrophilic carbon which is usually the more substituted carbon because it can better support the positive charge

What will be the products in following reactions

Alcohols undergo acid catalysed elimination reactions to produce alkenes. Because water is lost in the elimination, this reaction is called dehydration reaction. Secondary and tertiary alcohols always give E¹ reaction in dehydration. Primary alcohols whose b-carbon is branched also give E¹ reaction. The reactivity of alcohol for elimination reaction is tertiary alcohol > Secondary alcohol > Primary alcohol
