Intermediate Chemistry: Haloalkanes and Alcohols
Did you know that Teflon is the commercial name for poly(tetrafluoroethylene) which has many applications as a heat-resistant material with nonstick properties? Learn more about Teflon halothane and other haloalkanes in this chemistry course. We define haloalkanes or halogenoalkanes at the outset along with their names and the general formula. You'll discover some examples of halomethane compounds and commercial haloalkanes. Then we move on to the hydrolysis of haloalkanes and the substitution reaction with cyanide. Next we describe the nucleophilic substitution with ammonia and the mechanism by which substitution occurs. We also review a hydrolysis experiment using silver nitrate to create variously coloured silver halide precipitates.After that you'll look at the haloalkane elimination reaction which results in hydrogen halide loss and a double bond formation. We explain the products of nucleophilic substitution and elimination reactions before exploring the haloalkanes' uses in the industry: Halothane as an anaesthetic and CFCs as aerosol propellants solvents and others. Scientists have found that CFCs form free radicals that react with ozone molecules and destroy the ozone layer. The course continues by outlining the characteristics of alcohols such as their structure naming rules and the general formula.Then you will learn the three categories of alcohols—primary secondary and tertiary—and the number of alkyl groups they have attached to the carbon atom carrying the hydroxyl group. The subsequent subjects covered are the difference in alcohols' boiling points and corresponding hydrocarbons how the hydrogen bond enables alcohols to dissolve in water and how the alkyl part enables them to act as organic solvents. We investigate how alcohols undergo complete combustion into carbon dioxide and water and the formation of haloalkane from alcohol. Next we explore how alcohols undergo elimination reactions and form the corresponding alkenes. Finally the course discusses the reaction of alcohols with potassium dichromate distinguishing between primary secondary and tertiary alcohols. Start strengthening your understanding of organic chemistry with this course.
