Study Notes
Halogen Derivatives of Hydrocarbons
- Halogen derivatives of hydrocarbons are a parent family of organic compounds.
Classification of Monohalogen Compounds
- Monohalogen compounds are classified as primary (1°), secondary (2°), or tertiary (3°) based on the number of carbon atoms bonded to the carbon atom bearing the halogen.
IUPAC Nomenclature
- The IUPAC name of CH3CH2Br is bromoethane.
- The IUPAC name of (CH3)3CBr is tert-butyl bromide.
- The IUPAC name of (CH3)2CHBr is 2-bromopropane.
- The IUPAC name of (CH3)2CHCl is 2-chloropropane.
Halide Classification
- A tertiary halide is a halide in which the halogen atom is bonded to a tertiary carbon atom, such as (CH3)3CBr.
- A primary halide is a halide in which the halogen atom is bonded to a primary carbon atom, such as CH3CH2Br.
- A secondary halide is a halide in which the halogen atom is bonded to a secondary carbon atom, such as (CH3)2CHBr.
Hybridization of Carbon Atom
- The carbon atom in alkyl halides is sp³ hybridized.
Properties of Alkyl Halides
- Alkyl halides are polar molecules.
- Alkyl halides are susceptible to nucleophilic substitution reactions.
