  2. Haloalkane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haloalkane

    In primary (1°) haloalkanes, the carbon that carries the halogen atom is only attached to one other alkyl group. An example is chloroethane (CH 3 CH 2 Cl). In secondary (2°) haloalkanes, the carbon that carries the halogen atom has two C–C bonds. In tertiary (3°) haloalkanes, the carbon that carries the halogen atom has three C–C bonds.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elimination_reaction

    A secondary deuterium isotope effect of slightly larger than 1 (commonly 1 - 1.5) is observed. There is no antiperiplanar requirement. An example is the pyrolysis of a certain sulfonate ester of menthol: E1 elimination Nash 2008, antiperiplanar relationship in blue Only reaction product A results from antiperiplanar elimination.

  4. Halocarbon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halocarbon

    Examples of organohalogens-chlorides. Halocarbons are typically classified in the same ways as the similarly structured organic compounds that have hydrogen atoms occupying the molecular sites of the halogen atoms in halocarbons. Among the chemical families are: [2] haloalkanes—compounds with carbon atoms linked by single bonds

  5. Functional group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_group

    Haloalkanes are a class of molecule that is defined by a carbon–halogen bond. This bond can be relatively weak (in the case of an iodoalkane) or quite stable (as in the case of a fluoroalkane). In general, with the exception of fluorinated compounds, haloalkanes readily undergo nucleophilic substitution reactions or elimination reactions. The ...

  6. Williamson ether synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Williamson_ether_synthesis

    The alkoxide (or aryloxide) may be primary and secondary. Tertiary alkoxides tend to give elimination reaction because of steric hindrance. The alkylating agent, on the other hand is most preferably primary. Secondary alkylating agents also react, but tertiary ones are usually too prone to side reactions to be of practical use.

  8. Hydrohalogenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrohalogenation

    A hydrohalogenation reaction is the electrophilic addition of hydrogen halides like hydrogen chloride or hydrogen bromide to alkenes to yield the corresponding haloalkanes. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] If the two carbon atoms at the double bond are linked to a different number of hydrogen atoms, the halogen is found preferentially at the carbon with fewer ...

  9. Free-radical halogenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-radical_halogenation

    For example, consider radical bromination of toluene: [5] bromination of toluene with hydrobromic acid and hydrogen peroxide in water. This reaction takes place on water instead of an organic solvent and the bromine is obtained from oxidation of hydrobromic acid with hydrogen peroxide. An incandescent light bulb suffices to radicalize.
