What is Alkyl Halide Reactions with KOH and KCN about?
Alkyl halides react differently with aqueous and alcoholic KOH due to the type of nucleophile. Aqueous KOH produces alcohols while alcoholic KOH produces alkenes. Alkyl halides form cyanides with alcoholic KCN but isocyanides with alcoholic AgCN due to differences in how the nucleophiles attack. Alkyl halides have higher boiling points than alkanes due to stronger dipole-dipole interactions from their polar bonds.
