Reagents. NaoH (aq) or KOH(aq)


Conditions. Heat under reflux


Mechanism: nucleophilic substitution

Haloalkane to nitrile

Reagent. KCN in aqueous ethanol.


Conditions. Boil under reflux


Mechanism. nucleophilic substitution

Haloalkane to amine

Reagents: Ammonia in ethanol (Alcoholic NH3)


Condition: heat in a sealed tube(under pressure)


Mechanism. nucleophilic substitution

Haloalkane to alkene

Reagents. KOH in ethanol


Conditions. Heat


Mechanism. Elimination

Primary Alcohol to aldehyde

Reagent. Potassium dichromate and dilute sulphuric acid as catalyst


Conditions. Warm distillation


Réaction type. Partial oxidation

Secondary Alcohol to ketone

Reagents. Potassium dichromate and dilute sulphuric acid as catalyst


Conditions. Heat With distillations


Réaction type. Oxidation

Aldehyde to carboxylic acid

R. Excess potassium dichromate


C. Heat under reflux


Rt. Oxidation

Alcohol to alkene

R. Conc H2SO4


C. Heat


Rt. Dehydration


M. Elimination (acid catalysed)

Reduction of Aldehydes and ketones

R. NaBH4 In aqueous solution


Rt. Reduction


M. Nucleophilic addition

Aldehyde or ketone to hydroxynitirile

R. KCN followed by dilute acid (HCl)

Not HCN because it’s toxic

Test for COOH

R. Na2CO3


OBS. CO2 is produced so effervescence of CO2

COOH+ NaOH

Pd. Sodium methanoate

COOH+NH3

Pd. Ammonium methanoate

COOH+ métal (Ca, etc)

Pd. Metal salt + H2


OBS. effervescence of H2

COOH = carboxylic acid


(Ester formation, estérification)

R. Alcohol+COOH+concH2SO4(acid cat)


C. Heat with reflux


RT. condensation ( molecules combine and H2O is released)

Hydrolysis of esters

R. H2O+dilute-H2SO4


P. COOH+alcohol


C. Heat with reflux

Acid hydrolysis

Hydrolysis of esters

R. dilute-NAOH


C. heat with reflux


P. CONa + alcohol


Add dilute HCL after to get COOH back

Base hydrolysis

Acly Chloride

Back (Definition)

Acid Anhydride

Back (Definition)

Formed by a condensation reaction between two carboxylic acid molecules

Acyl chloride to carboxylic acid

R. H2O


C. Room temp


M. Nuc-add-el


Obs. white steamy fumes of HCl

Acid Anhydride to carboxylic acid

R. H2O


C. Room temp


M. Nuc-add-el


OBS. colourless sol. Slower than aclychloride

Acyl chloride to ester

R. Alcohol


C. Room temp


M. Nuc-add-el


OBS. white steamy fumes of HCL

Better for making esters than using carboxylic acids as this is faster and not reversible.

R. Conc HNO3+ conc H2SO4catalyst forms No2+


C. At 50c to prevent further substitution

Friedel Crafts Acylation

R. Acyl chloride AlCl3catalyst


C. 50c heat with reflux


P. Alkylketone

R-COCl + AlCl3 -> AlCl4- + R-CO+(the electrophile)
