what do you mean by hunsdicker reaction? what do you mean by hunsdicker reaction?
this reactio is also called Borodine Reaction approve if useful
ok gman but i am asking about what it is
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.approve if useful
is there any type of reactivity order basisbecause this reaction was there in our ut
it is recation for preparation for alkyl bromidein this we react silver salt of acid with Br2 in presence of CCl4 and we get alkyl bromide + AgBr + carbon dioxidefluorine and chlorine does not give this reaction and in case of iodine ester is major productit has radical mechanism APPROVE IF USEFUL
SIze of alkyl group is inveresly proportional to the yield of product
look in case of dependency over the carbon atoms it is10RX>20RX>30RX approve if useful
and in this reaction the number of carbon is decreased be 1
and in the case of the reaction with the halides the stability is there of Br2 only in presence of CCl4here CCl4 is the non polar solvent
here Fluorine will not be used because of its more electronegativityhere chlorine is not used because of its more bond dissociation enthalpyand finally iodine is not used beacuse it gives ester and iodine as the majorsapprove if useful
