Haloalkanes(alkyl halides)

 8. Haloalkanes (Alkyl Halides)

Introduction

R-X

Haloalkane (Alkyl halides)

where, R- = alkyl group like CH3-(methyl), CH3-CH2-(ethyl) etc.

            -X = halogen like -Cl, -Br, -I etc.

Classification

Haloalkanes can be classified into monohaloalkanes, dihaloalkanes, trihaloalkanes or polyhaloalkanes based on the number of halogen atoms present.

Based on the carbon atom to which the halo group is attached, the monohaloalkanes are further divided into primary (10), secondary (20) and tertiary (30) haloalkanes.

The carbon that is bonded with only one or no other carbon is called primary carbon. The carbon that is bonded with two next carbon atoms is called secondary and the carbons that are bonded with 3 and 4 next carbon atoms are respectively called tertiary and quaternary carbon atoms.

Isomerism

Ø Different compounds having the same molecular formula are called isomers.

Ø Compounds that differ in structures and have the same molecular formula are called structural isomers.

Ø The following two types of structural isomerism are observed in monohaloalkanes.

                        Chain Isomerism (skeletal isomerism)

Chain isomers are compounds with the same molecular formula differing only in the main carbon chain or skeleton. Such isomerism is exhibited by haloalkanes having 4 or more carbon atoms.

e.g., 2-iodobutane and 2-iodo-2-methylpropane

                        Positional Isomerism

Position isomers are compounds with the same molecular formula differing only in the position of the halo group. Such isomerism is exhibited by haloalkanes having 3 or more carbon atoms.

e.g., 1-chloropropane and 2-chloropropane

General methods of Preparation of Monohaloalkanes (Alkyl halides)

1.       From Alkanes (by direct halogenation)

Alkanes can be halogenated easily in presence of sunlight. These reactions are free radical substitution reactions. e.g.,

On long-standing, excess chlorine substitutes all the available hydrogen atoms from the alkanes.

2.       From alkene (by hydrohalogenation)

Alkenes undergo addition with hydrohalic acids (HCl, HBr and HI) resulting in haloalkanes. e.g,

Markovnikov’s rule: When an unsymmetrical reagent is added to an unsymmetrical alkene the positive part of the reagent is attached to the carbon atom with more hydrogen atoms, and the negative part gets bonded with the carbon atom with a smaller number of hydrogen atoms. e.g,   

4.       Write short notes on Markovnikov’s rule.                                       3

Peroxide effect (anti markovnikov’s rule): When HBr is added to unsymmetrical Alkenes in the presence of organic peroxide, the positive part (H) gets bonded with carbon having a smaller number of hydrogen and the negative part (Br) gets bonded with carbon having the higher number of hydrogens.

5.       What product is obtained when 2-methylprop-1-ene is treated with HBr in presence of organic peroxide?       1

3. From alcohols

a. Reaction with halogen acids

Ø  Alcohols, when treated with halogen acids (HCl, HBr, HI), the -OH group is substituted with the -X group (halide).

Ø  The reaction of alcohols with hydrochloric acid is slow, therefore, requires the presence of ZnCl2 as a catalyst. e.g.,

 

b. Reaction with PCl5/PX3/SOCl2

Alcohols also react with PCl5, PCl3 and SOCl2 resulting in Chloroalkanes. e.g.,

Ø  In the case of PI3 and PBr3, being unstable, P4 and I2 or Br2 are heated to produce the PI3 or PBr3 in situ.

Ø  SOCl2 is considered a better reagent as the side products SO2 and HCl escape out as gases.

a.     HCl                                                       c. HBr                    

b.     Both HCl and HBr                              d. HI

 

Physical Properties

Ø Lower members - gases; higher members - liquids with pleasant smell; even higher are waxy solids.

Ø Boiling points increase with the molecular masses in homologous series and among different halogen atoms,

     RI > RBr > RCl

Ø Insoluble in water; soluble in organic solvents.

Chemical Properties

[A] Nucleophilic substitution reactions (SN1/SN2)

The most common type of reactions that Haloalkanes undergo are nucleophilic substitutions. These reactions occur by the replacement of the halogen of haloalkane by a nucleophile. Its general form is expressed as

where Y- is a nucleophile like -OH, -NH2, -CN etc.

The nucleophilic substitution reactions are of two types viz:

i)                    SN1 (substitution nucleophilic unimolecular)

ii)                  SN2 (substitution nucleophilic bimolecular)

 

I)         SN1 reaction: In this reaction rate of reaction depends upon the concentration of only one of the reactants i.e., the haloalkane substrate. Hence called unimolecular.

It involves the following two steps.

Step I: Haloalkane undergoes heterolytic fission to form a carbocation and a halide ion. It’s a slow hence rate-determining step(rds).

Hence, the rate can be expressed as: rate = k [Haloalkane]

Step II: Carbocation, being highly reactive, reacts with nucleophiles such as OH- to form the product, which is a fast step.

The order of reactivity of 10, 20, 30 and methyl haloalkanes is in the following order;

R3C-X > R2CHX > RCHX > CH3-X i.e., 30 > 20 > 10 > methyl

This is due to the following order of stability of the carbocations;

R3C+ > R2CH+ > RCH2+ > CH3+

II)           SN2 reaction: This reaction occurs in a single step. The rate of the reaction depends on the concentration of both the substrate (haloalkane) and reagent (nucleophile). Hence it is called a bimolecular reaction. In the transition state, there are partial bonds of both the nucleophile and the leaving group (halogen).

The rate of reaction can be expressed as:

      Rate = k [haloalkane] [nucleophile]

1. Formation of alcohols - Reaction with aqueous caustic alkali (substitution by -OH group)

When treated with aq. NaOH or KOH, haloalkanes give alcohols.

10.   Make the following conversions:

6.       Formation of ether - Reaction with sodium alkoxide (substitution by -OR)(Williamson's etherification process)

When treated with sodium alkoxide or potassium alkoxide, haloalkanes give ethers. This is a nucleophilic substitution reaction where the alkoxide ion (OR-) acts as a nucleophile and substitutes the halogen atom from alkyl halide.

Importance of Williamson’s etherification reaction:

Ø  It involves the SN1 reaction of an alkoxide ion with a primary alkyl halide.

Ø  It helps to prove the structure of ethers.

Ø  It is a sweet-smelling colourless liquid.

Ø  It is heavier than water than with sp. gr. 1.485.

Ø  It boils at 610C and freezes at -630C.

Ø  It dissolves nonpolar compounds like fat, oil and wax.

Ø  If inhaled in a small amount, causes temporary unconsciousness.

1)      Oxidation - Reaction with air

Chloroform, when exposed to light and air, undergoes slow oxidation to give highly poisonous- phosgene gas, which can cause death in higher amounts. This is one of the reasons for discarding chloroform as an anaesthetic.

So, to prevent the formation of carbonyl chloride following precautions should be taken.

ü  Store in a dark bottle to cut off the light.

ü  Fill the chloroform up to the stopper to exclude air.

ü  1% Ethanol is also added, which reacts with the phosgene gas formed and changes into a nontoxic compound- diethyl carbonate.

48.   Why does chloroform not give a white precipitate with aqueous silver nitrate?          1

Solution: Chloroform and other Chloroalkanes contain covalently bonded chlorine which does not ionize in an aqueous solution. Therefore they do not give white precipitate with aqueous silver nitrate.
