Haloalkanes an Introduction
IntroductionHaloalkanesThe halogen derivatives of alkane are called haloalkanes. Or the organic compound containing halogen atom (X = -F, -Cl, -Br, -I) as functional group are called haloalkanes.R...
Convert methane into ethane, ethene, ethanoic acid and ethanamide
Methane Chloromethane Ethane
Methane is reacted with chlorine in presence of sunlight to produce chloromethane. It is again reacted with Na in ether solvent to produce ethane.
Ethane is reacted with Br2 in presence of sunlight to produce bromoethane and is further reacted with alc.KOH to produce ethene.
Methane is reacted with chlorine in presence of sunlight to produce chloromethane then it is further reacted with KCN to form CH3CN. 
is completely hydrolyzed in the presence of 
to form 
.
Methane is reacted with chlorine in presence of sunlight to produce chloromethane then it is further reacted with potassium cyanide to form methyl cyanide which is further reacted with potassium cyanide which is further partially hydrolyzed in the presence of 
to form ethanamide.
