3-Methylhexane is a branched hydrocarbon with two enantiomers. [2] It is one of the isomers of heptane. The molecule is chiral, and is one of the two isomers of heptane to have this property, the other being its structural isomer 2,3-dimethylpentane. The enantiomers are (R)-3-methylhexane [3] and (S)-3-methylhexane. [4]
In chemistry, the haloform reaction (also referred to as the Lieben haloform reaction) is a chemical reaction in which a haloform (CHX 3, where X is a halogen) is produced by the exhaustive halogenation of an acetyl group (R−C(=O)CH 3, where R can be either a hydrogen atom, an alkyl or an aryl group), in the presence of a base.
C 3 H 5-Cl + NaF → R-F + NaCl This kind of reaction is called Finkelstein reaction . [ 2 ] However, it is also possible, for example, to produce phosphorus fluoride compounds by transhalogenating chlorine, bromine or iodine bound to phosphorus with a metal fluoride.
By reaction with tertiary amines, long-chain alkyl bromides such as 1-bromododecane, give quaternary ammonium salts, which are used as phase transfer catalysts. [ 9 ] With Michael acceptors the addition is also anti-Markovnikov because now a nucleophilic X − reacts in a nucleophilic conjugate addition for example in the reaction of HCl with ...
In organic chemistry, free-radical halogenation is a type of halogenation. This chemical reaction is typical of alkanes and alkyl-substituted aromatics under application of UV light. The reaction is used for the industrial synthesis of chloroform (CHCl 3), dichloromethane (CH 2 Cl 2), and hexachlorobutadiene. It proceeds by a free-radical chain ...
Bromoform was discovered in 1832 by Löwig who distilled a mixture of bromal and potassium hydroxide, as analogous to preparation of chloroform from chloral. [5]Bromoform can be prepared by the haloform reaction using acetone and sodium hypobromite, by the electrolysis of potassium bromide in ethanol, or by treating chloroform with aluminium bromide.
MOSCED (short for “modified separation of cohesive energy density" model) is a thermodynamic model for the estimation of limiting activity coefficients (also known as activity coefficient at infinite dilution).
The position alpha to the carbonyl group (C=O) in a ketone is easily halogenated. This is due to its ability to form an enolate (C=C−O −) in basic solution, or an enol (C=C−OH) in acidic solution. An example of alpha halogenation is the mono-bromination of acetone ((CH 3) 2 C=O), carried out under either acidic or basic conditions, to ...
