Aldehydes are organic compounds with the general formula RCHO, where R represents any alkyl group.
Ketones have two carbons joined by a double bond (C=O) and can be classified as primary, secondary or tertiary based on the number of carbon atoms attached to the carbonyl carbon atom.
Alcohol formation occurs through S2N1 mechanism with rate-determining step being the attack by OH on CX3.
<S: >Halogen atoms act as electron-seeking species and stabilize radicals by resonance stabilization.
The hydroxyl group (OH) acts as a nucleophile, attacking the carbon atom bonded to the leaving group.
<S: >The substitution reactions proceed readily due to the high electron affinity of halogens.
<S: >Chlorination is the most common halogenation process for alkanes.
Hydrolysis is the reaction between an alkyl halide and water to form an alcohol.
Hydrolysis is the reaction between an alkyl halide and water, resulting in the formation of an alcohol.
Alcohols are formed when a halogen atom is replaced by OH.
Carbocation intermediates play an important role in many organic reactions, including substitution reactions involving halogenoalkanes.
In the presence of water, alcohol is formed via an elimination reaction.
In the presence of water, alcohol is formed via an elimination reaction.
Dehydrohalogenation is a type of elimination reaction that involves removing halogens from a compound.
In the presence of water, alcohol is formed via an elimination reaction.
In chlorination, chlorine gas reacts with an unsaturated compound to form a chlorinated product.
