Sir,Can you please explain the mechanism of Hunsdiecker reaction and why yield of 1degree alcohols is more?
The silver(I) salts of carboxylic acids react with halogens to give unstable intermediates which readily decarboxylate thermally to yield alkyl halides. The reaction is believed to involve homolysis of the C-C bond and a radical chain mechanism.
yield: one degree is more because it is based on approach/steric factor & one degree offers less hindrance
