Three ways to convert alcohols to alkyl halides
|
1. add HX (halogen halide) to form RX plus H2O
2. add SOCl2 (thionyl chloride) to form RX + SO2 + HCl 3. add PBr (phosphorus tribromide) to form 3RBr + H3PO3 |

Dehydration of alcohols
|
acid catalyst
order of reactivity=tert, second, primary for stability rearrangement |
|
Dehydrohalogenation of alkyl halides
|
strong base
adjacent proton and halide halide reactivity order anti periplanar transition state most stable no rearrangement because no carbocation intermediate |
|
dehydation of alcohols
|
step 1: alcohol protonated
step 2: alklyoxonium ion leaves creating carbocation intermediate step 3: adjacent carbon to carbocation carbon is deprotonated |
|
carbocation rearrangement types (2)
|
1) alkyl group migration
2) hydride shift |
|
E2 mechanism
|
concerted process: base removes proton from beta carbon while halide-alpha carbon bond undergoes heterolytic cleavage and double bond forms.
|
|
E1 mechanism
|
unimolecular: ionizatio of alkyl halide to carbocation is rate determining step. Is followed by deprotonation of the carbocation.
