Haloalkanes: Naming, Bonding and Preparation

Name: Haloalkanes: Naming, Bonding and Preparation
Author: StemPy Lab

What happens when a halogen takes the place of a hydrogen on a carbon chain. Classification and naming of halogen compounds, the polar carbon-halogen bond and the physical properties it explains, and the main ways to prepare haloalkanes. It covers the Indian syllabus (NCERT, NEET, JEE Main) and the matching topic of A-Level, IB and AP.

Lesson 1about 30 min
Classification and naming of halogen compounds
A fridge pipe, an old hospital bottle and a field sprayer all hold carbon compounds with halogen atoms. Here you learn to sort these compounds by the carbon that holds the halogen, and to name them from their structure.

Lesson 2about 25 min
The carbon-halogen bond and physical properties
A bottle of chloroform feels cool in the hand because it evaporates quickly, while iodoethane is a heavy liquid that sinks in water. The polar carbon-halogen bond explains most of what we see.

Lesson 3about 25 min
Preparing haloalkanes
A haloalkane is made from an alcohol, from an alkane, from an alkene or from another haloalkane. Each route has its own reagent and its own reason, and some are far better than others.
