Hi everyone!
I just want to double check on the alcohol rxns with halides to make sure I'm understanding on what carbons the reaction will form:
-HBr, HCl, and HI work on all carbons
-SOCl2 only with primary/secondary
-PBr3 is methyl, primary, secondary, and gives sn2 inversion if applicable
Is that right? Thanks in advance!
