Study Notes
- Chapter 10 is about Haloalkanes and Arenes
Haloalkanes
- Haloalkanes are alkanes bonded to a particular halogen, represented as X, where X can be fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), or iodine (I).
Degrees of Haloalkanes or Alkyl Halides
- Primary haloalkanes (1°) have the structure CH3-CH2-Cl.
- Secondary haloalkanes (2°) have the structure where one carbon atom is bonded to two other carbon atoms and a halogen, e.g., (CH3)2-CH-Br.
- Tertiary haloalkanes (3°) have the structure where one carbon atom is bonded to three other carbon atoms and a halogen, e.g., (CH3)3-C-Br.
Halocycloalkanes
- Halocycloalkanes feature a cyclic chain attached to a halogen or alkyl halides.
Allylic Halides
- Allylic halides occur when a halide is attached to an α-carbon or next adjacent carbon atom to a double-bonded carbon.
- An example is 3-chloro-prop-1-ene.
- Another example is 3-chloro-3 methyl cyclohex-1-ene.
