What types of chemical reactions are typical for alkanes.
June 16, 2021 | education
| Alkanes are characterized by substitution, oxidation, combustion, isomerization (starting with butane) and decomposition reactions.
1. Substitution reaction: nitration.
C2H6 + HNO3 (t) = CH3NO2 + H2O.
2. Combustion reaction.
2 C2H6 + 7 O2 (t) = 4 CO2 + 6 H2O.
3. Oxidation reaction.
CH4 + O2 (t, cat) = HCOH + H2O.
4. Decomposition reaction.
2 CH4 (550-650 ° C, cat) = C2H4 + 2 H2.
5. Isomerization reaction.
C5H12 (AlCl3, t) = CH3CH (CH3) CH2CH3.
