compound
Alkane

Reagent/reactant

Condition

Classification

O2

In gaseous state

Combustion,produces water &


CO2

Sunlight, organic solvent

Homolytic free radical


substitution,produces
halogenoalkanes

Nickel cat, 4atm,


100<suo>o</sup>C

Heterolytic eletrophilic
addition,produces alkanes

Cl2, Br2, I2

Aqueous or organic,
reaction with Br water used
to test for alkenes

Heterolytic eletrophilic
addition,produces RX with 2
halogen atoms

HCl, HBr, HI

Gas phase or inert/organic


solvent

Heterolytic eletrophilic
addition,markovnikovs rule,
cabocation stability,produces RX

KMnO4 , acidified
potassium mangnate
(VII)

Purple colour of solution


decolorises when added to
alkenes.

Oxidation, heterolytic
eletrophilic addition,produces
diols

Phosphoric acid
H3PO4 cat

300oC, 60atm, ethanol the


reaction is reversible and
yield is 95% as unused
gases are recycled.

Hetrolytic electrophilic
addition.,steam hydration
produces ethanol

Alkene

Oxygen containing
compound to initiate
reaction. Ethene
polymerises to low density
polyethene at 200 oC and
20000atm.

Addition Polymerisation

H2SO4 and water.

The H2SO4 acts as a


catalyst and is recovered in
the end when water reacts
with alkyl hydrogen
sulphates to produce ROH

Electrophilic addition reaction

Warm, aqueous under


reflux

Heterolytic nucleophilic
substitution, RX hydrolysed to
ROH nu- is OH-, iodoalkanes
are fastest to hydrolyse because
their bonds are the weakest.

KOH

Warm in ethanol, in
anhydrous conditions and
under reflux

Elimination, produces alkenes


and KX

KCN

Ethanol, under reflux this


Heterolytic nucleophilic
produces nitriles, nu- is CN- substitution,this produces -

NH3

NH3 is dissolved in ethanol,


heated under reflux.

Heterolytic nucleophilic
substitution, this produces
amines.

For 1mary RX under reflux


for ROOH production,
distillation for aldehydes

Oxidation, for primary


secondary but tertiary ROH
cant be oxidised.

Cl2, Br2, I2
Alkene

H2

RCl, RBr, RI
Haloalkanes KOH, NAOH

ROH,
Alcohols

K2Cr2O72-/H+
acidified potassium

dichromate(VI)

For 2ndry ROH under reflux


for ketones

H2SO4(l)

Reflux at 170oC

Dehydration produces c=c

Al2O3(s)

300oC

Dehydration produces c=c

H3PO3

70oC

Dehydration produces c=c

PCl5(l)

Room temp used to test for


OH group when added to
OH acidic fumes produced
turning blue litmus paper
red

Halogenation,produces
chloroalkanes

NaBr(s)/H2SO4(l)

Reflux, HBR is made in situ


from sulphuric acid and NBr

Halogenation produces
bromoalaknes, nucleophilic
substitution

Red P + I2

Reflux

Halogenation produces
iodoalkanes

Na metal

Na will react gently with


ROH

This produces alkoxides such as


sodium ethanoate and H gas

ROOH

Warm with a conc acid


catalyst

This produces esters the O-H


bond is broken in the
Esterification reaction
