#1
Front (Question)

how can nitriles be formed from haloalkanes?

Back (Answer)

• haloalkane + NaCl —> nitrile + NaCl • nucleophilic substitution mechanism

#2
Front (Question)

how can nitriles be formed form a carbonyl compound via a hydroxynitirle?

Back (Answer)

• aldehyde / ketone + HCN —> hydroxynitirle + OH- • nucleophilic addition mechanism

#3
Front (Question)

reduction of nitriles to form amines

Back (Answer)

• nitrile + 2H₂ —> primary amine • conditions = nickel catalyst

#4
Front (Question)

hydrolysis of nitriles to form a carboxylic acid

Back (Answer)

• nitrile + 2H₂O + HCl —> carboxylic acid • conditions = heat

#5
Front (Question)

forming C-C bonds to benzene rings: friedel-crafts alkylation

Back (Answer)

• benzene + haloalkane ➞ alkylbenzene + HX • conditions = AlCl₃

#6
Front (Question)

forming C-C bonds to benzene rings: friedel-crafts acylation

Back (Answer)

• benzene + acyl chloride —> phenyl ketone + HCl • conditions: AlCl₃
