Alkane Reactions Flashcards
Grignard reaction
Alkane with halogen reacted with Mg
R-x +mg —> R-Mg-X
Wurtz reaction
Uses Zn or Mg to react with dihalides
Radical initioation
Heat and energy(hv)
Radical propigation
CH3-CH3 + Br —> CH3-CH2 + HBr
Termination radical
Two radicals react to make one stronv molecule. The unpaired electrons pair together
Alylic bromination
NBS a bromide is added to alylic carbon
NCS a chloride is added to alylic carbon
Halogenation (X2)
A halogen2 os reacted with heat and evergy(hv) to make
Molecule + X2 —> molecule X + HX
Hydrogenation (Br2/HI or H2/Ni)
Br2/HI. Or. H2/Ni
Add H and cleave sigma bond
Base and R-leaving group
Turns OH into O-R from the reactant
Reacting OH with Hx
Causes OH to leave and leave just an X to replace
Hx/H2O
Causes OH to leave and adds X to carbon beside where OH was
