  2. Haloalkane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haloalkane

    Haloalkane or alkyl halides are the compounds which have the general formula "RX" where R is an alkyl or substituted alkyl group and X is a halogen (F, Cl, Br, I). Haloalkanes have been known for centuries. Chloroethane was produced in the 15th century. The systematic synthesis of such compounds developed in the 19th century in step with the ...

  3. Alkyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkyl_group

    In organic chemistry, an alkyl group is an alkane missing one hydrogen. [1] The term alkyl is intentionally unspecific to include many possible substitutions. An acyclic alkyl has the general formula of −C n H 2n+1. A cycloalkyl group is derived from a cycloalkane by removal of a hydrogen atom from a ring and has the general formula −C n H ...

  4. Acyl halide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acyl_halide

    [1] [3] The general formula for such an acyl halide can be written RCOX, where R may be, for example, an alkyl group, CO is the carbonyl group, and X represents the halide, such as chloride. Acyl chlorides are the most commonly encountered acyl halides, but acetyl iodide is the one produced (transiently) on the largest scale.

  5. Halide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halide

    Radii in picometers of common halogen atoms (gray/black) and the corresponding halide anions (blue) In chemistry, a halide (rarely halogenide [1]) is a binary chemical compound, of which one part is a halogen atom and the other part is an element or radical that is less electronegative (or more electropositive) than the halogen, to make a fluoride, chloride, bromide, iodide, astatide, or ...

  6. 2-Chlorobutane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-Chlorobutane

    2-Chlorobutane, along with other alkyl halides, is a useful intermediate in many different organic reactions. The halogen group is an effective leaving group, leading to its use in both elimination and substitution reactions.

  7. Allyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allyl_group

    In organic chemistry, an allyl group is a substituent with the structural formula −CH 2 −HC=CH 2. It consists of a methylene bridge (−CH 2 −) attached to a vinyl group (−CH=CH 2). [1] [2] The name is derived from the scientific name for garlic, Allium sativum.

  8. 1-Chlorobutane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1-Chlorobutane

    1-Chlorobutane is an alkyl halide with the chemical formula CH 3 (CH 2) 3 Cl. It is a colorless, flammable liquid. It is a colorless, flammable liquid. Preparation and reactions

  9. Phosphonium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphonium

    The Michaelis–Arbuzov reaction is the chemical reaction of a trivalent phosphorus ester with an alkyl halide to form a pentavalent phosphorus species and another alkyl halide. Commonly, the phosphorus substrate is a phosphite ester (P(OR) 3) and the alkylating agent is an alkyl iodide. [11] The mechanism of the Michaelis–Arbuzov reaction
