Question

What is haloform reaction? Give example​

Answer 1

The haloform reaction is a chemical reaction where a haloform is produced by the exhaustive halogenation of a methyl ketone, in the presence of a base. The reaction can be used to transform acetyl groups into carboxyl groups or to produce chloroform, bromoform, or iodoform.

Answer 2

Answer:

haloform-reaction. The haloform reaction is a chemical reaction where a haloform (CHX3, where X is a halogen) is produced by the exhaustive halogenation of a methyl ketone (RCOCH3, where R can be either a hydrogen atom, an alkyl or an aryl group), in the presence of a base.

The reaction of a methyl ketone with chlorine, bromine, or iodine in the presence of hydroxide ions to give a carboxylate ion and a haloform is the haloform reaction. There is one aldehyde, which is acetaldehyde, that undergoes the haloform response.
