The replacement of hydrogen atom(s) in a
hydrocarbon, aliphatic or aromatic, by halogen
atom(s) results in the formation of alkyl halide
(haloalkane) and aryl halide (haloarene), respectively.
Haloalkanes contain halogen atom(s) attached to the
sp
3
hybridised carbon atom of an alkyl group whereas
haloarenes contain halogen atom(s) attached to sp
2
hybridised carbon atom(s) of an aryl group. Many
halogen containing organic compounds occur in
nature and some of these are clinically useful. These
classes of compounds find wide applications in
industry as well as in day-to-day life. They are used
as solvents for relatively non-polar compounds and
as starting materials for the synthesis of wide range
of organic compounds. Chlorine containing antibiotic,
chloramphenicol, produced by soil microorganisms
is very effective for the treatment of typhoid fever.
Our body produces iodine containing hormone,
thyroxine, the deficiency of which causes a disease
called goiter. Synthetic halogen compounds, viz.
chloroquine is used for the treatment of malaria;
halothane is used as an anaesthetic during surgery.
Certain fully fluorinated compounds are being
considered as potential blood substitutes in surgery.
In this Unit, you will study the important methods
of preparation, physical and chemical properties and
uses of organohalogen compounds.
After studying this Unit, you will be
able to
• name haloalkanes and haloarenes
according to the IUPAC system of
nomenclature from their given
structures;
• describe the reactions involved in
the preparation of haloalkanes and
haloarenes and understand
various reactions that they
undergo;
• correlate the structures of
haloalkanes and haloarenes with
various types of reactions;
• use stereochemistry as a tool for
understanding the reaction
mechanism;

Haloalkanes and haloarenes may be classified as follows:
These may be classified as mono, di, or polyhalogen (tri-,tetra-, etc.)
compounds depending on whether they contain one, two or more halogen
atoms in their structures. For example,
Monohalocompounds may further be classified according to the
hybridisation of the carbon atom to which the halogen is bonded, as
discussed below.
This class includes
(a) Alkyl halides or haloalkanes (R—X)
In alkyl halides, the halogen atom is bonded to an alkyl group (R).
They form a homologous series represented by C
n
H
2n+1
X. They are
further classified as primary, secondary or tertiary according to the
nature of carbon to which halogen is attached.
(b) Allylic halides
These are the compounds in which the halogen atom is bonded to an
sp
3
-hybridised carbon atom next to carbon-carbon double bond (C=C)
i.e. to an allylic carbon.
(c) Benzylic halides
These are the compounds in which the halogen atom is bonded to an
sp
3
-hybridised carbon atom next to an aromatic ring.

Since halogen atoms are more electronegative than carbon, the carbon-
halogen bond of alkyl halide is polarised; the carbon atom bears a
partial positive charge whereas the halogen atom bears a partial negative
charge.
Since the size of halogen atom increases as we go down the group
in the periodic table, fluorine atom is the smallest and iodine atom, the
largest. Consequently the carbon-halogen bond length also increases
from C—F to C—I. Some typical bond lengths, bond enthalpies and
