Chloride ions bromide

The major difference between the two mechanisms is the second step The second step m the reaction of tert butyl alcohol with hydrogen chloride is the ummolecular dis sociation of tert butyloxonium ion to tert butyl cation and water Heptyloxonium ion however instead of dissociating to an unstable primary carbocation reacts differently It IS attacked by bromide ion which acts as a nucleophile We can represent the transition state for this step as... 

Silver Bromide. Silver bromide, AgBr, is formed by the addition of bromide ions to an aqueous solution of silver nitrate. The light yellow to green-yeUow precipitate is less soluble in ammonia than silver chloride, but it easily dissolves in the presence of other complexing agents, such as thiosulfate ions. 

Bromine is moderately soluble in water, 33.6 g/L at 25°C. It gives a crystalline hydrate having a formula of Br2 <7.9H2 O (6). The solubiUties of bromine in water at several temperatures are given in Table 2. Aqueous bromine solubiUty increases in the presence of bromides or chlorides because of complex ion formation. This increase in the presence of bromides is illustrated in Figure 1. Kquilibrium constants for the formation of the tribromide and pentabromide ions at 25°C have been reported (11). 

S-Alkylthiiranium salts, e.g. (46), may be desulfurized by fluoride, chloride, bromide or iodide ions (Scheme 62) (78CC630). With chloride and bromide ion considerable dealkylation of (46) occurs. In salts less hindered than (46) nucleophilic attack on a ring carbon atom is common. When (46) is treated with bromide ion, only an 18% yield of alkene is obtained (compared to 100% with iodide ion), but the yield is quantitative if the methanesulfenyl bromide is removed by reaction with cyclohexene. Iodide ion has been used most generally. Sulfuranes may be intermediates, although in only one case was NMR evidence observed. Theoretical calculations favor a sulfurane structure (e.g. 17) in the gas phase, but polar solvents are likely to favor the thiiranium salt structure. 

The acid-catalyzed additions of bromide and chloride ion to thiiranes occurs readily, with halide preferentially but not exclusively attacking the most substituted carbon atom of the thiirane. The reaction of 1-substituted thiiranes with acetyl chloride shows a slight preference for halide attack at the less substituted carbon atom (80MI50601). For further discussion of electrophilic catalysis of halide ion attack see Section 5.06.3.3.2. The reaction of halogens with thiiranes involves electrophilic attack on sulfur (Section 5.06.3.3.6) followed by nucleophilic attack of halide ion on carbon. 

Halide ions may attack 5-substituted thiiranium ions at three sites the sulfur atom (Section 5.06.3.4.5), a ring carbon atom or an 5-alkyl carbon atom. In the highly sterically hindered salt (46) attack occurs only on sulfur (Scheme 62) or the S-methyl group (Scheme 89). The demethylation of (46) by bromide and chloride ion is the only example of attack on the carbon atom of the sulfur substituent in any thiiranium salt (78CC630). Iodide and fluoride ion (the latter in the presence of a crown ether) prefer to attack the sulfur atom of (46). cis-l-Methyl-2,3-di-t-butylthiiranium fluorosulfonate, despite being somewhat hindered, nevertheless is attacked at a ring carbon atom by chloride and bromide ions. The trans isomer could not be prepared its behavior to nucleophiles is therefore unknown (74JA3146). 

Generally, pitting corrosion only occurs on passivated metals when the passive film is destroyed locally. In most cases chloride ions cause this local attack at potentials U > U q. Bromide ions also act in the same way [51], The critical potential for pitting corrosion UpQ is called the pitting potential. It has the same significance as in Eqs. (2-39) and (2-48). 

The ortho indirect deactivating effect of the two methyl groups in 2,6-dimethyl-4-nitropyridine 1-oxide (163) necessitates a much higher temperature (about 195°, 24 hr) for nucleophilic displacement of the nitro group by chloride (12iV HCl) or bromide ions N HBr) than is required for the same reaction with 4-nitropyridine 1-oxide (110°). With 5-, 6-, or 8-methyl-4-chloroquinolines, Badey observed 2-7-fold decreases in the rate of piperidino-dechlorination relative to that of the des-methyl parent (cf. Tables VII and XI, pp. 276 and 338, respectively). 

The aggressivity of halides varies, with bromide and chloride being most aggressive. Increasing concentration of the halide also depresses the pitting potential as demonstrated for two steels in Fig. 3.16. Certain ions in solution act as inhibitors (e.g. nitrate) raising the pitting potential while others depress it (e.g. sulphide). Temperature and pH also have effects as illustrated... 

Systematizing these results, we see that both in Fig. 72 and in Fig. 73, if we follow tho succession of curves from top to bottom, we go from ions of dissimilar character to ions of similar character in Fig. 73 we go down to Li+ and (Oil)", both strong order-producing ions, while in Fig. 72 we go down to Cs+ and Br", both strong order-destroying ions. If the same rule—from dissimilar character downward to similar character— is to be applied to the rubidium and cesium halides, the order I, Br, Cl, F, will clearly have to be reversed, in order that Rbl and Csl shall be the lowest in each case. It has been known for several years that such an inversion exists. Table 40, compiled by Robinson and Harned, shows the order observed in the whole set of iodides, bromides, and chlorides. It will be seen that, for RbCl, RbBr, and Rbl, and likewise for CsCl, CsBr, and Rbl, the observed order is opposite to that found for the other alkali halides. Hitherto this inversion has been regarded as mysterious. But it falls in line with the facts depicted in Fig. 72,... 

We have seen in Experiment 8 that silver chloride has low solubility in water. This is also true for silver bromide and silver iodide. In fact, these low solubilities provide a sensitive test for the presence of chloride ions, bromide ions, and iodide ions in aqueous solutions. If silver nitrate... 

Several facts become apparent. There are fewer Na+ ions than Cl- ions other positively charged ions—Mg+2, Ca+2, and K+—are also present. Sulfate ions, S04 2, and bromide ions, Br-, are other negatively charged ions present in the water. Thus, ocean water is more than a solution of sodium chloride. Another fact is that K+ ions are much less plentiful than Na+ ions (Na+/K+ is about 46) even though K+ ions are rather plentiful in the earth (Na+/K+ is about 2). 

Precipitation of silver bromide will occur when the concentration of the bromide ion in the solution is 2.0 x 103 times the iodide concentration. The separation is therefore not so complete as in the case of chloride and iodide, but can nevertheless be effected with fair accuracy with the aid of adsorption indicators (Section 10.75(c)). 

Example. A mixture of ca 0.05 mmole each of chloride and bromide ions is to be separated on an anion exchange column of length 10 cm and 1cm2 cross-section, using 0.035M potassium nitrate as the eluant. The distribution coefficients (Kd) for the chloride and bromide ions respectively are 29 and 65. 

Theory. The anion exchange resin, originally in the chloride form, is converted into the nitrate form by washing with sodium nitrate solution. A concentrated solution of the chloride and bromide mixture is introduced at the top of the column. The halide ions exchange rapidly with the nitrate ions in the resin, forming a band at the top of the column. Chloride ion is more rapidly eluted from this band than bromide ion by sodium nitrate solution, so that a separation is possible. The progress of elution of the halides is followed by titrating fractions of the effluents with standard silver nitrate solution. 

Pipette 25.0 mL of the bromide ion solution (0.01-0.02M) into a 400 mL beaker, add excess of dilute silver nitrate solution, filter off the precipitated silver bromide on a sintered glass filtering crucible, and wash it with cold water. Dissolve the precipitate in a warm solution prepared from 15 mL of concentrated ammonia solution, 15 mL of 1M ammonium chloride, and 0.3 g of potassium tetracyanonickelate. Dilute to 100-200 mL, add three drops of murexide indicator, and titrate with standard EDTA (0.01 M) (slowly near the end point) until the colour changes from yellow to violet. 

Estimate the density of each of the following solids from the atomic radii of the ions given in Fig. 1.48 (a) calcium oxide (rock-salt structure, Fig. 5.39) (b) cesium bromide (cesium chloride structure, Fig. 5.41). 

Bi(V) in aqueous perchloric acid is very strongly oxidising but kinetic studies have been confined to a few stopped-flow measurements on oxidation of iodide, bromide and chloride ions. The appearance of Bi(III)-halide complexes was first-order with respect to Bi(III) and in all cases the first-order rate coefficient,, was the same, i.e. 161 + 8 sec at 25 °C ([H30 ] = 0.5 M, p. = 2.0 A/), irrespective of the nature or concentration of the halide. A preliminary attack on solvent is compatible with these interesting results, viz. 

The induced reduction of chlorate can be inhibited by iodide, bromide and chloride ions. The effectiveness of these ions is about 400 10 1 in the given order. The order and the magnitude of the effect agree fairly well with the catalytic activity of these ions in the arsenic(III)-cerium(IV) reaction. This inhibition by halides is presumably connected with the opening of a new two-electron route for the arsenic(III)-cerium(IV) reaction. 

During the induced reactions involving peroxydisulphate in the presence of oxygen, the induced oxidation of iron(II) by oxygen can be observed just as with the hydrogen peroxide-iron(ll) system. Chloride and particularly bromide ions are effective inhibitors in the iron(II)-peroxydisulphate system. 

Aryl Halides from Diazonium Ion Intermediates. Replacement of diazonium groups by halides is a valuable alternative to direct halogenation for the preparation of aryl halides. Aryl bromides and chlorides are usually prepared by a reaction using the appropriate Cu(I) salt, which is known as the Sandmeyer reaction. Under the classic conditions, the diazonium salt is added to a hot acidic solution of the cuprous halide.99 The Sandmeyer reaction occurs by an oxidative addition reaction of the diazonium ion with Cu(I) and halide transfer from a Cu(III) intermediate.

The chloride ion is one of the most frequently analysed by IC, e.g. following up combustion of polymers [854,855] similar analyses were reported for the bromide ion [854,855] and nitrite [855]. Analysis of polyester resins for halogens or phosphorous components may be carried out via conversion to halides and phosphates, respectively.
