Question

propane to allyl chloride

Answer 1

Is it to or two. I am little bit confused

Answer 2

Explanation:

Allylic hydrogen present in alkenes reacts with low concentration of chlorine at high temperature ranging from 500°C to 600°C or in presence of ultraviolet rays gives alkene with chlorine atom substituted at allylic position.

$C^*H_3CH=CH_2$

* = allylic carbon with allylic hydrogen

$CH_3CH=CH_2+CL_2\overset{500^oC-600^oC}\rightarrow Cl-CH_2CH=CH_2$
