a 3rd data base?
3.2
Laboratory synthesis & industrial manufacture of halogenoalkanes
(haloalkanes) from alcohols, alkanes, alkenes

Reactivity trends of halogenoalkanes - introduction to their nucleophilic
substitution reactions, the substitution reaction between halogenoalkanes (haloalkanes)
& water, experiments with silver nitrate solution
3.4
The
substitution reaction of halogenoalkanes (haloalkanes) with sodium/potassium hydroxide to
give alcohols
3.5
The
nucleophilic substitution reaction between halogenoalkanes (haloalkanes) and potassium cyanide
and hydrolysis of nitriles to carboxylic acids
3.6

was solved
Halogenoalkanes (haloalkanes) reaction
mechanisms
The following notes have
basic reaction conditions, reagents and general equations as well as
detailed notes on the mechanisms indicated
(overlap because they were written before above sections 3.2 to 3.7 were
compiled)
Nucleophilic substitution by water/hydroxide ion
[SN1 or SN2

give alcohols]
with extra notes on
kinetics, rds, molecularity, rate expression, activated complex etc.
Nucleophilic
substitution by cyanide ion to give a nitrile
[SN1 or SN2
mechanisms]
Nucleophilic
substitution by ammonia/primary amine to give primary/secondary
amines etc.
[SN1 or SN2]
Elimination of
hydrogen bromide to form alkenes [E1 and E2 mechanisms]
Free radical
chlorination/bromination of haloalkanes to give halogenoalkanes
- mechanism
Alkylation to give
alkyl-aromatic hydrocarbons like methylbenzene
[Friedel-Crafts reaction mechanism]
