Intro to Organic chem.

1. Always nuclearphile(e rich region attacks)

Alkene
Why iodine very hard to undergo frs
Ans: 1 the 1st step of propagation is endodermic
Without sufciemt energy supply, it cannot proceed to 2 nd step of propagation.
Thus .
Alkene
The e rich region( double repel the delta negative br then
Melting pt and boiling pt
Test for unsaturation
e.g. br2 in ccl4
rate of reaction of X2 and HX opposite
rate of reaction with X2 down the group decrease ( calculate enthalpy change,
the 1st step of propagation is + or -.
Rate of reaction with HX increase the down the group. Because , decrease in
bond strength as the atomic size increase)
Markovnikov rule
Saytzeff rule
The major product is the alkene with the greatest no. of R groups attached to the
carbon of carbon-carbon double bond. ( refer to dhs notes page 19
Arene
Itself is plane, but when it substituted , it becomes tetrahedral
The group or atom attached to benzene is first generated in 1 st step, as E with +
sign
