2-chloropropane is a major product of the reaction of chlorine with propane under ultraviolet light. Write the mechanism for this reaction including the initiation step and the two propagation steps.
Show how to convert alkenes, alkyl halides, and carbonyl compounds to alcohols.
Ethane reacts with chlorine (Cl2) in the presence of ultra-violet (UV) light, to produce 1-chloropropane (CH3CH2Cl) and hydrogen bromide (HCl). As shown in the equation below.
CH3CH3 + Cl2 → CH3CH2Cl + HCl
Describe the reaction mechanism of the reaction between ethane and chlorine to produce 1-chloroethane. The description should be detailed and must include the type of bond fission that takes place
