This may be due to the fact that the H— Cl bond being stronger than HBr bond, is not cleaved by the free radical, whereas the HI bond is weaker and iodine free radicals combine to form iodine molecules instead of adding to the double bond. 2.

Benzene: By electrophilic substitution: The ortho and para isomers can be easily separated due to large difference in their melting point. Reactions with iodine are reversible in nature and require the presence of an oxidising agent (HNOs, HIO,) to oxidise the HI formed during iodination. Fluoro compounds are not prepared by this method due to high reactivity of fluorine. 230 Enrichment XII CBSE CHEMISTRY IHL, Naming Reactions: 1.

Swarts reaction: (CH,CH, Br + AgF CH,CH)F +NaBr ‘The synthesis of alkyl fluorides is best accomplished by heating an alkyl chloride/bromide in the presence ofa metallic fluoride such as AgF, HgoF:, Co or SbF Physical Properties Appearance: Colourless when pure, however, bromides and iodides develop colour when exposed to light due to formation of halogen. Many volatile halogen compounds have sweet smell. Boiling points: alkyl halide are show high bp than hydrocarbon due to polarity. Factors affecting Boiling points: Bp. a vanderwaal's force a surface area. Bp. a no, of C in straight chain Bp.a u (net dipole moment) Bp. a (1/ branched chain) Bp. a no. of halogen Bp. a. size of halogen Melting Points: Symmetrical molecules fit crystal lattice better than unsymmetrical ones. Boiling points of isomeric dihalobenzenes are very nearly the same. However, the para-isomers are high melting as compared to their ortho-and meta-isomers. It is due to symmetry of para-isomers that fits in erystal lattice better as compared to ortho- and meta-isomers. Melting point is a packing of crystal lattice. Density: The density increases with increase in number of carbon atoms, halogen atoms and atomic mass of the halogen atoms. Solubility: The haloalkanes are only very slightly soluble in water. Less energy is released when new attractions are set up between the haloalkane and the water molecules as these are not as strong as the original hydrogen bonds in water. However, haloalkanes tend to dissolve in organic solvents because the new intermolecular attractions between haloalkanes and solvent molecules have much the same strength as the ones being broken in the separate haloalkane and solvent molecules. ‘Stereo chemical aspects Plane Polarized light: Light is propagated in the form of waves. Ordinary monochromatic light is supposed to consist of waves vibrating in all planes. If such a light is passed through a Nicol prism, the emergent light is found to consist of waves vibrating in only one plane. Such a light is called plane polarised light. 231 Enrichment XIl CBSE CHEMISTRY Optical activity: Certain compounds rotate the plane polarised light when it is passed through their solutions. Such compounds are called optically active compounds. The angle by which the plane polarised light is rotated is measured by an instrument called polarimeter. The phenomenon is termed as optical isomerism. *@nOr Dextro rotatory: If the compound rotates the plane polarised light to the right, i direction, itis called dextrorotatory (Greek for right rotating) or the d-form and is indicated by placing a positive (+) sign before the degree of rotation. Laevo rotatory: If the light is rotated towards left (anticlockwise direction), the compound is said to be laevo rotatory or the I-form and a negative (~) sign is placed before the degree of rotation. Molecular asymmetry: The spatial arrangement of four groups (valencies) around a central carbon is NH tetrahedral and if all the substituents attached to that carbon are different; such a e., clockwise carbon is called asymmetric carbon or stereo centre. The resulting molecule “ on ‘would lack symmetry and is referred to as asymmetric molecule, The asymmetry cu, of the molecule is responsible for the optical activity in such organic compounds Chirality: The carbon which are non superimposable on their mirror image are Ny said to be chiral and this property is known as Chirality. While the objects, which yg, a are, superimposable on their mirror images are called achiral. The two molecules are optically active. Enantiomers: The Stereoisomers related to each otlier’as non Superimposable mirror images are called enantiomers. Enantiomers possess identical physical properties namely, melting point, boiling ‘point, solubility, refractive index, etc, They only differ with respect to the rotation of plane polarised light. If one of the enantiomer is dextro rotatory, the other will be laevo rotatory. Diastereomer: Diastereomers are stereo isomers that are not mirror images of one another and are non-superimposable on one another. Stereoisomers with two or more stereo centers can be diastereomers. They are never mirror images and differ in all physical properties. They are the direction and magnitude of optical rotation. OH oH oH on HC: NH, HN cH; HC. NH, HN.

Such a mixture is known as racemic mixture or racemic modification. racemic mixture is represented by prefixing dl or (+) before the name. The process of conversion of enantiomer into a racemic mixture is known as racemisation. (+) butan-2-ol. 232 Enrichment XII CBSE CHEMISTRY Meso isomer: The Meso isomer has two asymmetric carbon atoms the configuration of one Cy carbon is the mirror image of the other, the net result being the molecule as a whole becomes symmetric. This molecule is said to have a symmetric plane, aN oH which divides the molecule into two equal halves. The molecule becomes us ou “achiral”, It has configuration which is super imposable on its mirror image os Retention: The relative spatial arrangement of bonds at an asymmetric centre remains same afier a chemical reaction or transformation. Inversion: The relative spatial arrangement of bonds at an asymmetric centre is not same after a chemical reaction or transformation. Racemisation: The relative spatial arrangement of bonds at an asymmetric centre is same and also not a same after a chemical reaction or transformation. cH, ¢ fr A B If (A) is the only compound obtained, the process is called retention of configuration If B) is the only compound obtained, the process is called inversion of configuration. Ifa 50:50 mixture of the above two is obtained then the process is called racemisation and the product is optically inactive, as one isomer will rotate light in the direction opposite to another. Mechanism of Nucleophilic Substitution reactions: Substitution Nucleophilic bimolecular (Sx2) 1. The rate depends upon the concentration of both the alkyl halide and nucleophile. 2. The incoming nucleophile interacts with alkyl halide causing the carbon halide bond to break while forming a new carbon-OH bond. Reactions are carried out in aprotic solvents. 3. These two processes take place simultaneously in a single step with transition state and no intermediate is formed 4. Transition state are unstable and cannot be isolated so rearrangement not possible. 5. Reaction requires the approach of the nucleophile to the carbon bearing the leaving group, the presence of bulky substituents on or near the carbon atom have a dramatic inhibiting effect. 6. The simple alkyl halides, methyl halides react most rapidly in Sx2 reactions because there are only three small hydrogen atoms. Tertiary halides are the least reactive because bulky groups hinder the approaching nucleophiles. 7. The order of reactivity followed is: Primary halide > Secondary halide > Tertiary halide. 8. Itis inversion configuration due to backside attack so optically active forms dextro rotatory become laevo rotatory vice versa. 233 Enrichment XII CBSE CHEMISTRY Substitution nucleophilic unimolecular (Sy1) on, een = e+? oe cH, on segs J + Tor — 822 eHy.con HC cH, 1. The rate of reaction depends upon the slowest step; the rate of reaction depends only on the concentration of alkyl halide. 2. The polarised C—Br bond undergoes slows cleavage to produce a carbocation and a halide ion, The carbocation thus formed is then attacked by nucleophile. 3. It occurs in two steps. Step 1 slowest and reversible& carbocation formation. ‘Step II - nucleophile substitution reaction. 3. Carbocation is stable and so rearrangement possible. The stability of carbocation, greater will be its ease of formation from alkyl halide and faster will be the rate of reaction. 4, Reactivity depended with stability of carbocation, Benzylic and allylic halides show high reactivity towards the Sy1 reaction, The carbocation thus formed gets stabilised through resonance 5. The order of reactivity followed is: Tertiary >Benzylic > allylic > Secondary > Primary 6. Itis Inversion & Retention configuration so product is a mixture of two optically active forms gives racemic mixture. 7. Reactions are generally carried out in-polar protic solyents because the C-X bond breaking energy is obtained through solvation of halide ion.with the protort of pfoti¢ solvent. 8. The reactivity of the halide: R-I> R-Br>R-Cl>>R-F. As iodine is a better leaving group because of its large size, it will be released at a faster rate in the presence of incoming nucleophile. Mechanism of Elimination reactions: When a haloalkane with f-hydrogen atom is heated with alcoholic solution of potassium hydroxide, there is elimination of hydrogen atom from B-carbon and a halogen atom from the a-carbon atom. AS a result, an alkene is formed, so itis called f-climination. Saytzeff rule which can be summarised as “in dehydrohalogenation reactions, the preferred product is that alkene which has the greater number of alkyl groups attached to the doubly bonded carbon atoms.” If there is possibility of formation of more than one alkene due to the availability of more than one a- e "als one hydrogen atoms, usually one alkene is formed as the rs “tee major product. BeBase: eLeaving group Nucleophilic vs Elimination An alkyl halide with a-hydrogen atoms when reacted with a base or a nucleophile has two competing routes: substitution (Sy1 and Sy2) and elimination, Which route will be taken up depends upon the nature of alkyl halide, strength and size of base/nucleophile and reaction conditions. Nucleophilic Substitution reactions: Substitution reaction requires the approach of the nucleophile to the carbon bearing the leaving group. So smaller nucleophile will prefer to act as a nucleophile 234 Enrichment XIl CBSE CHEMISTRY therefore it can easy to approach a tetravalent carbon atom. Reactivity: Primary > Secondary > Tertiary halide. Elimination reactions: Elimination depending upon the stability of carbocation or the more substituted alkene. So bulkier nucleophile will prefer to act as a base abstracts a proton rather than approach a tetravalent carbon atom (steric reasons).

Nucleophilic substitution A substitution reaction takes place halogen is bonded to sp’ hybridised carbon, called leaving group departs as halide ion, itis called nucleophilic substitution reaction. Ambient nucleophiles: Groups like cyanides and nitrites possess two nucleophilic centers and are called ambident nucleophiles. KCN is predominantly ionic and provides cyanide ions in solution. Although both carbon and nitrogen atoms are in a position to donate electron pairs, the attack takes place mainly through carbon atom and not through nitrogen atom since C—C bond is more stable than C—N bond. However, AgCN is mainly covalent in nature and nitrogen is free to donate electron pair forming isocyanide as the main product. Similarly nitrite ion also represents an ambident nucleophile with two different points of linkage [- O—N-O]. The linkage through oxygen results in alkyl nitrites while through nitrogen atom, it leads to nitroalkanes. 1 20: R—X +H,0— R—OH +HX Alcohol 2 aq.KOH: R—X + ag.KOH— R—OH +KX Alcohol 3) NHS: RXX + NH; R-NH2 +HX Amine 4 RONa: R—X +RONa—>R—OR +NaX Ether 5 KCN: ROX + KCN + R—CNHKX Alkyl cyanide 6 AgCN: ROX + AgCN — RNC Agx Alkyl isocyanide 7 KNO; RXX+KNO; + R—ONO +KX Alkane nitrate 8 Agno: RXX + AgNO; + R— NO; +AgX, Nitro alkanes 9 CH;COOAg: R—X + CH\COOAg + R—OOCCH, + AgX Ester 235 Enrichment XIl CBSE CHEMISTRY 10 CH=CNa: — RX +CH=CNa—+ R— C=CH +NaX Alkynes 1 Lid: RAX + LiAIHy—+ R-H Alkane II. Nucleophilic substitution: FOR HALOARENES. Aryl halides are extremely less reactive towards Nucleophilic substitution reactions due to the following reasons: () Resonance effect: C—CI bond acquires a partial double bond character due to resonance, AS a result, the bond cleavage in haloarene is difficult than haloalkane a at ‘a1 — —- ayo e CO — (F— P— OG (ii) Sp2 in hybridisation of carbon atom in C—X bond: The sp2 hybridised carbon with a greater s- character is more electronegative and can hold the electron pair of C—X bond more tightly than sp3- hybridised carbon in haloalkane with less s-character. Thus, C—CI bond length in haloalkane is 177pm while in haloarene is 169 pm. It is difficult to break a shorter bond than a longer bond. of we 4 (iii) Instability of phenyl cation: The phenyl cation formed as a result of self-ionisation will not be stabilized by resonance and therefore, Sy! mechanism is ruled out. (iv) Electron rich arenes: They are electron rich arenes therefore repulsion possible with the electron rich nucleophile to approach. Additions of —NO2 group increases reactive of Aryl halides towards Nucleophilic substitution reactions because the presence of nitro group at ortho- and para-positions withdraws the electron density from the benzene ring and thus facilitates the attack of the nucleophile on haloarene. The carbanion thus formed is stabilised through resonance. The negative charge appeared at ortho- and ‘para- positions with respect to the halogen substituent is stabilised by NO: group while in case of ‘meta-nitrobenzene, none of the resonating structures bear the negative charge on carbon atom bearing the -NO} group. on Se _omsor 445K, 0) NAOH, 6238, 300 atm Sa (i) rT ne Xe, eli on on NOs (Naot, s68K vam, ON No, a Ge NO, No, No, Therefore, the presence of nitro group at meta- position does not stabilise the negative charge and no effect on reactivity is observed by the presence of -NO2 group at meta-position. 236 Enrichment XIl CBSE CHEMISTRY III. Electrophilic substitution reactions FOR HALOARENES. Halogen withdraws electrons through inductive effect and releases electrons through resonance. Through inductive effect, chlorine destabilises the intermediate carbocation formed during the electrophilic substitution. Halogen withdraws electrons through inductive effect and releases electrons through resonance. Through inductive effect, halogen destabilises the intermediate carbocation formed during the electrophilic substitution. Due to resonance, the electron density increases more at ortho- and para-positions than at meta- positions. Further, the halogen atom because of it’s -I effect has some tendency to withdraw electrons from the benzene ring. As a result, the ring gets somewhat deactivated as compared to benzene and hence the electrophilic substitution reactions in haloarenes occur slowly and require more drastic conditions as compared to those in benzene. 1.Halogenation a € ‘ i SS Anhyd.

While the oy H objects are superimposable on theit = mirror image ate called ‘CH,CHCH,CH, qua achiral. Although chlorine is an electron-withdrawing group, yet it is ortho-, para-directing in electrophilic aromatic substituting reactions. Why ? Chlorine withdraws electrons through inductive effect and releases electrons through resonance. Through inductive effect, chlorine destabilizes the intermediate carbocation formed during the electrophilic substitution. ‘Through resonance, halogen tends to stabilize the carbocation and the effect is more pronounced at ortho- and para-positions. The inductive effect is stronger than resonance and causes net electron withdrawal and thus causes net deactivation, The resonance effect tends to oppose the inductive effect for the attack at ortho- and para-positions and hence makes the deactivation less for ortho- and para- attack. Reactivity is thus controlled by the stronger inductive effect and orientation is controlled by resonance effect. ‘Write the structures of the following compounds : (@. 2-Chloro-3-methylpentane (ii) 1-Chloro-4-ethyleyclohexane (ii) 4-tert-Butyl-3-iodoheptane (iv) 1, 4_Dibromo-but-2-ene () 1-Bromo-4sec-butyl-2-methylbenzene, 242 Enrichment XIl CBSE CHEMISTRY 10.2 Ans, 10.3 Ans. co) 10.4 Ans. 1 CH, ~CH-CH-CH,-CH, cl CH, 2-Chloro-3.methylpentane Why is sulphuric acid not used during the reactions of alcohols with KI? 1;S0, is an oxidizing agent.

In alkoxide ion, the negative charge is localised on oxygen while in phenoxide ion, the charge is delocalised. 5.The delocalisation of negative charge (structures I-V) makesphenoxide ion more stable and favours the ionisation of phenol. 6.Phenol molecule is less stable than phenoxide ion due to charge separation in resonance structures. 268 Enrichment XIl CBSE CHEMISTRY Sop 25S 7. The presence of electron withdrawing groups such as nitro group, enhances the acidic strength ofphenol. 8. This effect is more pronounced when such a group is present at ortho and para positions, It is due to the effective delocalisation of negative charge in phenoxide ion. 9 Electron releasing groups, such as alkyl groups, in general, do not favour the formation of phenoxide ion resulting in decrease in acid strength.

The action of zymase is inhibited once the percentage of alcohol formed exceeds 14 percent. If air gets into fermentation mixture, the oxygen of air oxidises ethanol to ethanoic acid which in turn destroys the taste of alcoholic drinks. Ethanol is a colourless liquid with boiling point 351 K The commercial alcohol is made unfit for drinking by mixing in it some copper sulphate (to give it a colour) and pyridine (a foul smelling liquid). It is known as denaturation of alcohol.Nowadays, large quantities of ethanol are obtained by hydration of ethene.
