Organic Compounds Containing Oxygen
Ether hydrogen bonding capacity ignored
What goes wrong
Assumes ethers cannot participate in intermolecular hydrogen bonding with protic solvents due to lacking an -OH proton donor.
Next time
Remember ether oxygens act as hydrogen-bond acceptors, enabling strong intermolecular interactions with protic donor molecules.
