Experiment 6. Preparing Alkyl Halides

Alkyl halides can be prepared via

acid-catalyzed

substitution reaction.

Alkyl halides dp which substitioation reactions

SN1 or SN2

SN1 vs SN2

SN2 is bimolecular, SN1 is unimolecular

which follow SN1

tertiary alchohols

whcih follows SN2

primary alchohols

which can choose either SN1 or SN2

secondary

SN1 intermedaite is a

carbocation

SN2 does

backside attach

what did we use for tert btuyl fro expeiremnt

SN1 reaction with HCL

presence of tertiary alkyl halide was tested iwth

silver nitrate dvia SN1

percipate=

positive results of tertiary alkyl halide

presense of primary alkyl halide tested with

sodium iodide in acetone via SN2

which where placed in bath

if no percipate was seen

HCL caution

highly corrosive and skin burns and can make vapors with organic halides

theoretical yield

convert # moles to grams

percent yield=

which does SN1 prefer ecreasing order

tertiary,secondart and primary

Which reagent is used as a qualitative chemical test for tertiary alkyl halid

silver nitrate in ethanol

Which reagent is used as a qualitative chemical test for primary alkyl halide?

sodium iodide in acetone

the solvenet in reaction of tert butanol with HCL

water which is polar and protic solvent

NaHCO3

a base that is used to neutralize any unreacted HCL

the organic later was on

top and the tert butyl chloride

which reacts fasted with NaI

-bromobutane

since Br is better leaving group

astest reaction with AgNO3 in ethanol?

SN1= TERT

so tert butlchor and tert-bultbromo

Predict which of the following compound(s) will give positive result in the NaI test for alkyl halides? (

1-bromoheptane

(2-bromoethyl)cyclohexane

Predict which of the following compound(s) will give positive result in the AgNO3 test for alkyl halides? (

2-chloro-2-methylhexane

1-bromo-1-methylcyclopentane
