Haloalkanes and haloarenes Flashcards
An antibiotic made of chlorine to fight against typhoid fever
Chloramphenicol
Which is used for treatment of malaria
Chloroquine
What is methylene chloride
Dichloromethane
Alkyl halides are easily prepared from
Alcohols
Which has more dipole moment chloromethane or fluromethane
Chlorromethane
Phosphorous tribromide and triiodide are generated
Insitu
Addition of bromine in CCl4 yield
Vic- dibromide
Reactions with iodine are Reversible in nature hence require the presence of
An oxidizing agent like HNO3 and HIO4
Why does haloalkanes react with KCN to form Cyanide and AgCN to form Cyanide?
KCN is predominantly Ionic and released CN - ions in solution eventhough both carbon and nitrogen are in place to donate e, then donation mainly happens through C because C-C bond is stronger than C-N bond. In the case of AgCN its covalent so nitrogen is free to donate electrons and forms isocyanides
An alkyl halide with beta hydrogen when reacted with nucleophile or base can undergo
Nucleophilic substitution reaction or elimination rn
The bulkier nucleophile will prefer to act as
Base
Grignard reagent react with water to form
Hydrocarbons
