Lucas test is used to distinguish between $1^{\circ}, 2^{\circ}$ and $3^{\circ}$ alcohols.
Lucas test is used to distinguish between $1^{\circ}, 2^{\circ}$ and $3^{\circ}$ alcohols.
Lucas reagent is a solution of anhydrous zinc chloride in concentrated hydrochloric acid.
The Lucas test in alcohols is a test to differentiate between primary $\left(1^{\circ}\right)$, secondary $\left(2^{\circ}\right)$, and tertiary $\left(3^{\circ}\right)$ alcohols.
Tertiary alcohols react immediately with Lucas reagent.
Secondary alcohols react within $10-15$ minutes (depending on their solubility).
Primary alcohols do not react appreciably with Lucas reagent at room temperature.
