  2. Haloalkane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haloalkane

    Tetrafluoroethane (a haloalkane) is a colorless liquid that boils well below room temperature (as seen here) and can be extracted from common canned air canisters by simply inverting them during use. The haloalkanes (also known as halogenoalkanes or alkyl halides) are alkanes containing one or more halogen substituents. [1]

  3. Bromochlorodifluoromethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bromochlorodifluoromethane

    Bromochlorodifluoromethane (BCF), also referred to by the code numbers Halon 1211 and Freon 12B1, is a haloalkane with the chemical formula C F 2 Cl Br.It is used for fire suppression, especially for expensive equipment or items that could be damaged by the residue from other types of extinguishers.

  4. Halomethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halomethane

    Haloalkanes are diverse in their properties, making generalizations difficult. Few are acutely toxic, but many pose risks from prolonged exposure. Some problematic aspects include carcinogenicity and liver damage (e.g., carbon tetrachloride). Under certain combustion conditions, chloromethanes convert to phosgene, which is highly toxic.

  5. 1-Chloro-1,1-difluoroethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1-Chloro-1,1-difluoroethane

    1-Chloro-1,1-difluoroethane (HCFC-142b) is a haloalkane with the chemical formula C H 3 C Cl F 2.It belongs to the hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) family of man-made compounds that contribute significantly to both ozone depletion and global warming when released into the environment.

  6. 1,2-Dichloro-1,1-difluoroethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1,2-Dichloro-1,1-difluoro...

    1,2-Dichloro-1,1-difluoroethane (also R-132b or HCFC-132b) is a haloalkane and a hydrochlorofluorocarbon. It is an intermediate during the production of HFC-134a. [2]: Figure 7-2 According to a 2022 report by the WMO and other agencies, it has an ODP of 0.038 and a 100-year GWP of 332. [2]:

  7. Freon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freon

    Dichlorodifluoromethane (R-12 or CFC-12), the most commonly used Freon brand refrigerant prior to its ban in many countries in 1996 and total ban in 2010. 1,1,1,2-Tetrafluoroethane (R-134a or HFC-134a), one of the main replacements for the formerly widespread R-12. Opteon halogenated olefins now replacing Freons in many applications.

  8. 1-Bromobutane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1-Bromobutane

    As a primary haloalkane, it is prone to S N 2 type reactions. It is commonly used as an alkylating agent. When combined with magnesium metal in dry ether, it gives the corresponding Grignard reagent. Such reagents are used to attach butyl groups to various substrates. 1-Bromobutane is the precursor to n-butyllithium: [4]
