REACTIONS OF ALKANES Halogenation 1. [F]    Note: Bromine is more selective than chlorine. Chlorine is more reactive than bromine. Heat or light has to be present.    SYNTHESIS OF ALKANES Reduction /Hydrogenation 2. [R]    3. [R]    Other Alkane Synthesis 4. [A/B, S, R] Note: C-C bond formation     SYNTHESIS OF ALKENES AND ALKYNES Dehydrohalogenation 5. [E]     Note: More stable alkene is formed unless a bulky base such as tert-BuO-K+ is used. 157  Alcohol Dehydration 6. [E]    Di-Dehydohalogenation 7. [E]     Partial reduction of Alkynes 8. [R]   Other catalysts: Ni2B or P2  9. [R]     REACTIONS OF ALKENES AND ALKYNES 10. [EA]   158  11. [F]    12. [EA]    13. [EA,S]    14. [EA]    15. [EA]   16. [O]    159  17. [O]    18. [O]    19. [O,S] Note: an epoxide forms as an intermediate.    20. [O]  Note: The oxidation stops at the aldehyde (RCHO), if formed.    21. [EA,S] Note: Addition of one mole X2 is rare.    22. [EA] Note: Addition of one mole HX is rare.    160  23. [F]  Note: Addition of one mole HX is rare.    24. [F]    25. [F]     ALCOHOL SYNTHESIS FROM ALKENES 26. [EA]    27. [EA]   28. [EA]     ALDEHYDE/KETONE SYNTHESIS FROM ALKYNES 29. [EA]  161  30. [EA]   OTHER REACTIONS Acid/Base  31.    The base may or may not be paired with an alkali metal such as Li , Na , or K .  Equilibrium favors the side of the reaction with the weaker acid and weaker base.   Tosylation 32.     Reactions grouped by mechanism [S] SN1 / SN2:  4, 13, 18, 20  [E] E1 / E2:  5, 6, 7  [EA] Electrophilic Addition:  10, 12, 13, 14, 15, 21, 22, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30  [F] Free Radical:  1, 11, 23, 24, 25  [R] Reduction:  2, 3, 4, 8, 9  [O] Oxidation:  16, 17, 18, 19, 20  Other Reactions  C―C bond forming reactions:  4, 24 Acid/Base Reactions:  31 Tosylation:  32   GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL
