Alkene Reactions Series: Video 4 Halogenation of alkenes is the reaction in which a double bond is broken and replaced by a vicinal dihalide – 2 halogen atoms added to neighboring carbons. This reaction follows a pattern of anti addition. The goal of this video is to help you understand rather than memorize concepts related […]
EAS Aromatic Halogenation Reaction and Mechanism Tutorial Video
EAS Series: Video 3 This video will start by showing you a quick comparison of alkene halogenation versus aromatic halogenation: bromination and chlorination. This video will show you the aromatic halogenation mechanism from the role of the Lewis Acid catalyst and formation of the super-electrophile, through the entire mechanism of adding halogen to benzene. Also […]
