Addition
Hydrogenation, let’s begin,
Alkene + H₂, now let’s win.
With a transition metal catalyst, it’s no strain,
At room temp, you make an alkane!
Halogenation next in line,
Alkene + halogen, it’s just fine.
Diatomic halogen gas on cue,
At room temperature, makes a haloalkane too!
Hydrohalogenation, oh so slick,
Alkene + HX — do it quick!
That’s a hydrogen halide, make no mistake,
At room temp, a haloalkane you’ll make!
Hydration — add H₂O,
To an alkene, let the alcohol flow.
With dilute acid catalyst, bring the heat,
That alcohol product? Super sweet!
Substitution Reactions
Substitution of alkane, let’s go:
Alkane + halogen, now you know.
With UV radiation, you’ll attain,
A haloalkane + hydrogen halide — that’s the gain!
Substitution of alcohols is next:
Alcohol + hydrogen halide, not too complex.
You get a haloalkane + water out,
But listen up, here’s what it’s about:
Tertiary alcohols react just fine,
At room temp, they don’t need time.
Secondary and primary take the heat,
To get the haloalkane — complete!
Substitution of haloalkanes, let’s begin,
Haloalkane + OH⁻ to win.
Use NaOH aqueous, turn up the heat,
You’ll get alcohol + metal halide — that’s neat!
Elimination Reactions
Dehydration — water out!
From alcohol to alkene, give a shout!
With concentrated acid, heat it up tight,
Tertiary goes fast, primary needs might.
At room temp, tert’s ready to play,
But others need heat to get underway.
You get an alkene + water — hooray!
Hydrolysis Reactions
Saponification — soap gets made,
Ester + NaOH, that’s the trade.
With aqueous sodium hydroxide, apply some heat,
You’ll get sodium carboxylate + alcohol, neat!
Oxidation Reactions
Primary alcohols, what’s their fate?
First an aldehyde, then they graduate.
To carboxylic acid, it’s no joke,
Use acidified permanganate or dichromate with heat and smoke.
Secondary alcohols, take their stand,
Forming ketones just as planned.
Same oxidising agents, heat again,
That ketone product is your gain!
Tertiary alcohols? They don’t play,
Cannot be oxidised — no way!
Combustion of Hydrocarbons and Alcohols
Complete combustion — clean and bright,
Fuel + oxygen burns just right.
Gives you CO₂ and water, so clear,
Energy released — we all cheer!
Incomplete combustion — not so clean,
Fuel + oxygen in a lean machine.
Get carbon monoxide, soot, and H₂O,
Less energy, and toxins grow!
Condensation Reactions
Condensation — combine and lose,
Carboxylic acid + amine, if you choose.
With heat, they form an amide and water,
New bonds made — like a molecular potter!
Esterification — sweet perfume,
Acid + alcohol in the room.
Form an ester + water, quite refined,
A fruity scent you’ll surely find!
Other Reactions
Fermentation of glucose, ancient style,
Glucose to ethanol, all the while.
With yeast, at thirty-seven degrees,
And no oxygen, if you please.
Or else you’ll get acetic acid — ew,
So keep it aqueous, controlled and true.
You’ll make ethanol + CO₂, hooray,
Organic chemistry saves the day!
