Organic Compounds Containing Halogens

Halogenation Reaction

Halogenation is a chemical reaction where one or more hydrogen atoms are replaced by halogen groups. If we look at the order of reactivity of halogen compounds, they are found as fluorine > chlorine > bromine > iodine, where fluorine is more reactive than all others. At the same time, being more aggressive, it also […]

Halogenation and Nitration

Introduction  Halogenation is a chemical reaction in which halogen atoms replace hydrogen atoms in a molecule. The end product of halogenation is a chemical reaction that differs from the beginning component in terms of characteristics. Any halogen elements, such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine can halogenate water. Halogenation is essential in the research of

Halogen Substitution or Free Radical Halogenations

Substitution reactions are the swapping of one atom with another in a compound. This kind of swapping helps to form new compounds of practical importance. In halogenations, atoms are swapped with halogens like chlorine, fluorine, iodine, and bromine. Free radical halogenations are a kind of halogenations, where one free radical is formed with the product,

Halogen Properties

Halogens are placed under Group 17 in the periodic table, and the components in this group are Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine, and Astatine. The halogen means salt-former in Greek. Halogens are non-metals that react to reading. You can find them in the earth’s crust and seawater. Halogens are the group of elements in the periodic

Estimation of Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Halogens, Sulphur, Phosphorus

Halogens are estimated by the process known as the Carius method. In this method, a known quantity of the organic compound is reacted with fuming nitric acid in the presence of silver nitrate. We use IR iodate titration to determine sulphur. In phosphorus,a known quantity of organic compound is heated with fuming nitric acid. Phosphorus

Detection of Nitrogen, Sulphur, Phosphorus and Halogens

The Lassaigne’s Test is a general method for detecting halogens, nitrogen, and sulphur in organic compounds. The organic substances are covalently bound to these elements. These must be transformed into their ionic forms to be detected. The organic molecule is fused with sodium metal to accomplish this. The ionic chemicals generated during fusion are extracted

Detection of Extra Elemnts in Organic Compounds

Introducion  The detection of numerous elements (Cl, Br, I, S, and N) using a non breakable sodium ignition apparatus (NOSIA) instead of breakable ignition tubes is discussed in this study. The procedure involves heating an organic chemical and sodium metal in the NOSIA’s fusion zone until they melt (100–150°C), then adding water (80–90°C). The resulting

Detection of Extra Elements

The detection of extra elements in organic compounds is crucial in its investigation. Carbon is included in all organic molecules. Hydrogen is also found in most organic molecules (the few exceptions are the compounds such as CCl₄, CS₂, etc.). Other elements included in organic molecules include oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, and halogens, in addition to carbon

Buckminsterfullerene

C60 was founded in 1985 by Robert Curl, Harold Kroto, and Richard Smalley.  In 1990, W. Kretschmer described the first actual synthesis of  C60, a molecule shaped like a football and called Buckminsterfullerene. The experiment of Kroto involves a technique that uses a laser to vaporise a graphite rod in a helium stratosphere to produce carbon
