  2. Electrophilic halogenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrophilic_halogenation

    In organic chemistry, an electrophilic aromatic halogenation is a type of electrophilic aromatic substitution. This organic reaction is typical of aromatic compounds and a very useful method for adding substituents to an aromatic system. A few types of aromatic compounds, such as phenol, will react without a catalyst, but for typical benzene ...

  3. Halogen addition reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halogen_addition_reaction

    A halogen addition reaction is a simple organic reaction where a halogen molecule is added to the carbon–carbon double bond of an alkene functional group. [1] The general chemical formula of the halogen addition reaction is: C=C + X 2 → X−C−C−X. (X represents the halogens bromine or chlorine, and in this case, a solvent could be CH 2 ...

  4. Electrophilic aromatic substitution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrophilic_aromatic...

    Electrophilic aromatic substitution (SEAr) is an organic reaction in which an atom that is attached to an aromatic system (usually hydrogen) is replaced by an electrophile. Some of the most important electrophilic aromatic substitutions are aromatic nitration, aromatic halogenation, aromatic sulfonation, alkylation Friedel–Crafts reaction and ...

  5. Halogenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halogenation

    Halogenation. In chemistry, halogenation is a chemical reaction which introduces one or more halogens into a chemical compound. Halide -containing compounds are pervasive, making this type of transformation important, e.g. in the production of polymers, drugs. [1] This kind of conversion is in fact so common that a comprehensive overview is ...

  6. Electrophilic aromatic directing groups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrophilic_aromatic...

    An electron donating group (EDG) or electron releasing group (ERG, Z in structural formulas) is an atom or functional group that donates some of its electron density into a conjugated π system via resonance (mesomerism) or inductive effects (or induction)—called +M or +I effects, respectively—thus making the π system more nucleophilic. [1 ...

  7. Hexabromobenzene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexabromobenzene

    Hexabromobenzene is a white powder in physical form. It's not soluble in water but is soluble in ethanol, ether, and benzene. Molecular weigh t is 551.7 g/mol. Melting point of 327 °C. Whiteness percent of 93.0. Its bromine content is above 86%, and it represents high efficacy.

  8. Hell–Volhard–Zelinsky halogenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hell–Volhard–Zelinsky...

    An example of the Hell–Volhard–Zelinsky reaction can be seen in the preparation of alanine from propionic acid.In the first step, a combination of bromine and phosphorus tribromide is used in the Hell–Volhard–Zelinsky reaction to prepare 2-bromopropionic acid, [3] which in the second step is converted to a racemic mixture of the amino acid product by ammonolysis.

  9. Haloform reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haloform_reaction

    haloform-reaction. RSC ontology ID. RXNO:0000689. In chemistry, the haloform reaction (also referred to as the Lieben haloform reaction) is a chemical reaction in which a haloform (CHX3, where X is a halogen) is produced by the exhaustive halogenation of an acetyl group (R−C (=O)CH3, where R can be either a hydrogen atom, an alkyl or an aryl ...
