Explain the reactivity and relative strength of c- halogen bond in alkyl, allyl, benzyl, vinyl and arylhalides. |
|
Answer» The first of these is covalent bond STRENGTH. The strongest of the carbon-halogen covalent bonds is that to FLUORINE. Remarkably, this is the strongest COMMON single bond to carbon, being roughly 30 kcal/mole stronger than a carbon-carbon bond and about 15 kcal/mole stronger than a carbon-hydrogen bond |
