Hint:Grove's process is a method used for the synthesis of haloalkanes and the reaction is carried out in by passing HCl gas and using a Lewis acid. ... When a primary alcohol reacts with HCl in the presence of anhydrousZnCl2, primary chloroalkane is formed.
What is mechanism of grooves process?
Answer: When primary alcohol or secondary alcohol is combined with HCl gas in the presence of Lewis acid (anhydrous ZnCl2), primary and secondary alkyl chloride or chloro-alkane is generated respectively, then this method is named as Grove's process. The reaction continues via the SN2 mechanism.
What is Darzens process Class 12?
Darzens halogenation is a chemical processs involving the preparation of alkyl halides from alcohols by treating with reflux of thionyl chloride or bromide (SOX2) in the presence of small quantity of a nitrogen base like tertiary amine or pyridine, or the equivalent hydrochloride.
