One reaction that synthesizes these chemicals can react halohydrins in an "internal" form to yield a cyclic version of these. That reaction is typically preceded by conjugation of an alcohol and then proceeds via an S N two attack of an oxygen ion on a terminal carbon. That reaction between alkoxides and alkyl halides is a synthesis named for Williamson and can yield epoxides, the examples of these containing three-member-rings. These compounds in general contain an oxygen atom single bonded to two aryl or alkyl groups and thus have general formula R O R prime. For 10 points, name these compounds probably best known for their diethyl variety, which is a noted anesthetic.
