Question

Give the two chemical reactions of alkyl halides

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Alkyl halides can undergo two major types of reactions - substitution and/or elimination. The substitution reaction is called a Nucleophilic Substitution reaction because the electrophilic alkyl halide forms a new bond with the nucleophile which substitutes for (replaces) the halogen at the alpha-carbon

Answer 2

Explanation:

Alkyl halides can undergo two major types of reactions - substitution and/or elimination. ... The elimination of a beta-hydrogen (hydrogen on a carbon vicinal to the alkyl halidecarbon) and the halide produces a carbon-carbon double bond to form an alkene.
