  • 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.
  • Dehydrohalogenation is a type of elimination reaction that involves removing halogens from a compound.
