[edit] Too 'Wordy'
Does anyone else think this sentence is too 'wordy'? "When tert-butyl chloride is dissolved in water, a polar and protic solvent, the bulky chloride substituent is carried away by it, and isolated from the aliphatic chain, causing an heterolitic rupture of the compound, giving rise to a carbocation which eventually becomes a tertiary alcohol after a water molecule reacts with it, releasing hydrochloric acid as the final product."--Bfesser (talk) 00:19, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
