functional group compounds
Section 1
Functional group
Group of atoms or part of a molecule that give a compound its (characteristic set of)
reactions.
CnH2n+1OH
Part 1 Halogenoalkanes and their reactions (nucleophilic substitution and
elimination)
Halogenoalkanes
Are important in organic synthesis and can be used to prepare many materials.
A group of organic molecules that are like alkanes but in which one or more
hydrogen atoms are replaced by one or more halogen atoms. Also known as
halogenoalkanes.
Have the general formula CnH2n+1 x (where x represents the halogen)
Example of halogenoalkane
Structure of halogenoalkane
Recognised as alkane where the hydrogen atoms in their structure have been replaced by
one or more halogen atoms, halogenoalkanes can be classified into three fractions:
2|Page
, Primary Halogenoalkane- this consists of the carbon joined to a halogen also connected to
one alkyl group.
Secondary halogenoalkane- this consists of the halogen attached to the carbon. The
halogen will be linked to two alkyl groups.
Tertiary halogenoalkane- this consists of the halogen attached to the carbon. The halogen
will be linked to three alkyl groups.
