  • Chloride Ions Vs Bromine Case Study

    931 Words  | 4 Pages

    which is the better nucleophile, chloride ion or bromide ion? Try to explain this. Bromine is a better nucleophile. The chloride ion is more polar since it is above bromine on the periodic table and is more prone to hydrogen bonding due to its smaller size. Chloride ions are worse than bromine ions for nucleophilic attack, because the chloride ions are fully solvated and are not as available to attack. This is why Bromine ion is better nucleophile because is less electronegative and is willing to give

    You wish to substitute the bromine in the following molecules with a nucleophile. Explain whether the given molecule would react by S_N 1 or S_N 2 mechanism and explain why. 1-methyl-1-bromo-cyclohexane: S_N 1 mechanism because after Br leaves (leaving group departure) then it is a tertiary carbocation which is favored more in this type of mechanism. 1-bromopropane: This would react by S_N 2 mechanism because it is a primary alkyl halide, which undergo this type of mechanism. Also the nucleophile

    carbons attackss molecular bromine which in turn breaks the bromine-bromine bond. The attacked bromine forms a cyclic bridged bromine ion intermediate with a positive formal charge on it. While centered in between phenyl groupscarbons, the bromine that was notn’t attacked gainsned the electrons from the bromine-bromine bond making the molecule negative. The nonattacked bromine then attacks one of the carbons breaking one of the the bridged bromine bonds. The nonattacked bromine ends up on the opposite

    A control was used to compare the reactant and the product, showing a clear appearance that would indicate an alkene being present. Bromine was added to the reactant 4-methylcyclohexanol, and a reddish-brown color appeared, indicating that no reaction took place. Bromine was then added to the product 4-methylcyclohexene, and the clear appearance of the product remained, concluding that an alkene is indeed present. Discussion Given the results obtained post-experiment, the percent yield was

    Bromination is a type of electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction where one hydrogen atom of benzene or benzene derivative is replaced by bromine due to an electrophilic attack on the benzene ring. The purpose of this experiment is to undergo bromination reaction of acetanilide and aniline to form 4-bromoacetanilide and 2,4,6-tribromoaniline respectively. Since -NHCOCH3 of acetanilide and -NH2 of aniline are electron donating groups, they are ortho/para directors due to resonance stabilized

Apple has never advertised the fact that their iPhone is bromine proof and that 's because it 's not. Despite this fact, one individual decided to test this for us. As one can imagine, bromine destroyed the integrity of the iPhone. It looks like intense levels of chemical elements

  • Bromination Of E-Stilbene Report

    1306 Words  | 6 Pages

    Report Abstract Alkenes, due to the presence of C=C bonds, are prone to electrophilic addition reactions. this experiment aims to break the central C=C bond in E-stilbene and add bromine to those carbons. We will do so by dissolving solid E-Stilbene in dichloromethane (DCM) and adding liquid bromine. Since excess bromine is being used, we use sodium thiosulfate to remove it from the solution and separate in the separatory funnel. We then ice the dibromostilbene crystals, vacuum the solvent, and dry

  • Discussion Of 1-Butanol Into 1 Bromobutane

    1374 Words  | 6 Pages

    7) Discussion: The goal of this experiment was to covert 1-butanol into 1-bromobutane. By reacting 1-butanol with bromine, a nucleophilic substitution would occur where the alcohol group from 1-butanol is replaced with a bromine. In order for the -OH group to depart, its conjugate acid would have to be a strong acid. The conjugate acid for a hydroxyl group is water, which is a weak acid. To get the reaction to occur, 1-butanol would have to be reacted with sulfuric acid to protonate the -OH group
