What type of reaction is alkene (to something) -->
Electrophilic Addition
1 of 7
Alkene -> alkane
H2 + Ni catalyst @ temperature: 150c, pressure: 5atm OR H2 + Pt catalyst @ room temperature and pressure
2 of 7
Alkene -> halogenoalkane
X2 in organic solvent @ room temperature and pressure OR HX (aq) @ room temperature and pressure
3 of 7
Alkene -> alcohol
labatory = concentrated sulphuric acid + water OR industry = phosphoric acid + steam @ temperature: 300c, pressure: 60atm
4 of 7
Between an alcohol and a halogenoalkane what type of reaction is this (BOTH ways)?
Nucleophilic substitution
5 of 7
Alcohol -> Halogenoalkane
HX OR NaX + concentrated sulphuric acid (both heat under reflux)
6 of 7
Halogenoalkane -> Alcohol
H2O (water can be used however it is a poorer nucleophile) OR NaOH (both heat under reflux)
7 of 7
