Dehydrogenation (Dehydration) of Alcohols - BYJU'S
Alcohol upon reaction with protic acids tends to lose a molecule of water to form alkenes. These reactions are known as dehydrogenation or dehydration of alcohols. It is an example of an elimination reaction. Its rate varies for primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols.
14.4: Dehydration Reactions of Alcohols - Chemistry LibreTexts
One way to synthesize alkenes is by dehydration of alcohols, a process in which alcohols undergo E1 or E2 mechanisms to lose water and form a double bond. The dehydration reaction of alcohols to generate alkene proceeds by heating the alcohols in the presence of a strong acid, such as sulfuric or phosphoric acid, at high temperatures.
