Document Summary
No friday class on week of march 21. An organohalide is an organic compound containing at least one carbon- halogen bond (c-x) X replaces hydrogen and represents any halogen (f, cl, br, i, etc) Some can be detrimental to our health and environment. Name is based on longest carbon chain, start numbering to nearest substituent. Follows the same rules outlined in previous lectures. Other molecules have common names such as chloroform, etc. C-x bond is longer as you go down the periodic table (wrt the halogen) C-x bond is weaker as you go down the periodic table (as a conseq of the above) C-x bond is polarized with slight positive on carbon and slight negative on halogen. Result of the electronegative properties of the halogen. Reaction of tertiary c-oh with hx is fast and effective. Add hcl to hbr gas into ether solution of tertiary alcohol.
