Aryl halides (Ar-x)
Aryl halides are organic compounds
containing halogen atom attached to an aromatic
ring. They have the general formula ArX, where (Ar) is phenyl or substituted phenyl and (x) is F, Cl, Br,
I.

An aryl halide is not just any halogen
compound containing an aromatic ring. Benzyl
chloride, for example, is not an aryl halide; its
halogen is not attached to the aromatic ring, in
structure and properties it is simply a substituted
alkyl halide.

Physical properties:
1. Aryl halides are insoluble in water but soluble in
organic solvents.
2. Para-isomer has a melting point about (70-100ºC)
degree higher than ortho- or meta- isomers.
3. Para- isomer is more symmetrical which fits better
into a crystalline lattice and the higher m.p.
4. Because of the strong intracrystalline forces,
p- Isomer is less soluble in a given solvent than
ortho-isomer.

Preparation of aryl halide compounds:
1. Direct halogenations of aromatic compounds:
ArH + X2
Lewis acid
ArX + HX
X2 = Cl2, Br2
Lewis acid = FeCl3, AlCl3, BFe3, ....etc
Example:
NO2
NO2
Cl2 , AlCl3

Replacement of the diazonium group by Cl, or Br is
carried out by mixing the solution of the freshly
prepared diazonium salt with cuprous chloride or
cuprous bromide at room temperature.

3. From arylthallium compounds
Aryl iodides can be prepared by simple treatment of
arylthallium with iodine. The thallation route has the advantages of
speed, high yield, and orientation control.

The preparation of aryl halides from diazonium salts is more
important than direct halogenation for several reasons:
First of all, fluorides and iodides, which can seldom be prepared by
direct halogenation, can be obtained from the diazonium salts.
Second, where direct halogenation yields a mixture of ortho- and
para- isomers; the ortho isomer, at least, is difficult to obtain pure.
On the other hand, the ortho and para isomers of corresponding nitro
compounds, from which the diazonium salts ultimately come, can
often be separated by fractional distillation.

The low reactivity attributed to two factors:
A. Delocalization of electrons by resonance.
B. Differences in σ bond energies due to differences
in hybridization of carbon.

Analysis of aryl halides
► Insoluble in cold sulfuric acid.
► Inertness toward bromine in carbon tetrachloride
(CCl4) and toward permanganate solution (KMnO4).
► Formation of orange to red colors when treated
with chloroform and aluminum chloride.
► dissolution in cold fuming sulfuric acid, but at a
slower rate than that of benzene.
