What reaction is this?
Free radical halogenation using Bromine
What does the free radical halogenation using bromine do?
Attack the most substituted carbon
Highly selective
Replaces hydrogen at the most stable, highly substituted carbon
(tertiary > secondary > primary)
Forms a bromoalkane
What reaction is this?
Free radical halogenation using chlorine
What does this reaction do?
Does the same as the bromine version
Less selective tho
Reaction is fast
Chlorine radicals are very reactive and not very selective
Which is faster; free radical halogenation of bromine or chlorine?
Free radical halogenation of chlorine
What reaction is this?
Allylic/benzylic bromination
What does an allylic/benzylic bromination reaction do?
Replaces a specific hydrogen atom with a bromine atom on a carbon next to a double bond (allylic position) or next to a benzene ring (benzylic position)
What reaction uses these reactants?
Free radical halogenation using bromine
What reaction uses these reactants?
Free radical halogenation using chlorine
What reaction uses these reactants?
Allylic/Benzyling bromination
