Q

What is the product when alcohol reacts with HX according to SN1 mechanism?

A

water gets loss and carbocation is formed (rearrangement if possible) in the first step. In the second step Halide ion reacts over it and we get alkyl halide.

Q

what is the product when alcohol reacts with HX according to SN2 mechanism?

A

It is a single step reaction so we directly get our products RX and water.

Q

what is the advantage of using phosphorus halides?

A

carbocations are not formed so no possibility of rearrangement in prior of forming products. so no SN1 mechanism

Q

what is the product when alcohol reacts with Thionyl Chloride SOCl 2? ( in the presence of pyridine) and what is the use of pyridine over here?

A

R-Cl + SO 2 +HCl both are gaseous products so they can escape. Pyridine is used to trap HCl gas so as to form pyridinium chloride. The products are formed with inversion of configuration in presence of pyridine (SN2) and retention of configuration in absence of Pyridine(SN1).

Direct halogenation of Hydrocarbon in presence of U.V light gives? which Halogens are most reactive and least reactive ? which degree hydrogen would replace first? and which Last?

A

RX +HX.
F 2
I 2

Q

what measures are taken while halogenating with I 2 ?

A

I 2 is reversible so we use oxidizing agents to oxidize HI formed by HIO 3 or HNO3

Q

what is a finkelstein reaction?

A

It’s halide exchange, Preparation of Alkyl iodides from chlorides or bromides by using NaI and acetone as solvent.
RX + NaI (acetone)= RI + NaX x=Br, Cl
NaBr or NaCl are insoluble in acetone so can be easily removed.

17
Q

what is a hunsdiecker reaction?

A

RCOOAg + X 2 (CCl 4)= RX + AgX + CO 2

X= Br, Cl

18
Q

Which is the probable mechanism in Hunsdieker reaction?

A

Free radicle.

19
Q

what is the first product in Hunsdieker reaction?

A

Acyl Hypohalite. RCOOX and int his reaction there is involvement of chain reaction.

20
Q

In Hunsdieker reaction in solvent CCl 4 which halogen gives a better yield?

A

Br 2 than Cl 2

21
Q

In Hunsdieker reaction which type of alkyl halide is easily formed or order?

A

primary alkyl halide then secondary then tertiary.

22
Q

what if I 2 is used in Hunsdieker reaction? What is that reaction called?

A

then the product would be an ester.
Birbaum- Simonini reaction
2RCOOAg + I 2 = RCOOR +2AgI+ CO 2

23
Q

2RCOOH + 2I 2 + (red) Hg 2 O =

A

2RI + 2CO 2 + HgI 2

24
Q

If ethyne is the substrate what is the reagent to form vinyl halide? (CH2=CH-Cl)

A

HCl and CuCl 2

25

the lower members of alkyl halides are of which physical state ? and Higher members are of?

A

Gases

colourless sweet smelling liquids.

26
Q

Alkyl halides are soluble in?

A

alcohols ether benzene

27
Q

In isomeric alkyl halides what is the boiling point?

A

primary> secondary> tertiary

Iodide> bromides> chlorides> fluorides

28
Q

the reactivity of alkyl halides to form organometallic compounds

A

alkyl fluorides< alkyl chlorides< alkyl bromides< alkyl iodides

A

Hydrocarbons, alkane

31
Q

the reagents used for reduction of alkyl halides to alkanes?

A

(Zn, CH3COOH)( Zn, HCl)( Zn, NaOH)( Zn-Cu alcohol), (aluminium amalgam alcohol)

32
Q

RX + Alcoholic KOH=

A

alkene …dehydrohalogenation markownikoffs rules product is the major product.

33
