Talk:Acyl halide

I am currently making images of the chemical reactions mentioned in the "Chemical Reactions" section, and I plan to upload them when I'm done. Also I plan to investigate the reactions of acyl halides with Gilman and Grignard reagents for possible inclusion in the "Chemical Reactions" section.

I"m also planning to write a short new section at the end called "Synthesis", where I will discuss the synthesis of acyl halides (or at least chlorides). H Padleckas 22:38, 25 Mar 2005 (UTC)

:I plan on working on the following things;

1) Preparation Section

- Find more information about the preparation of the acyl halides as well as add the preparation of additional acyl halides that were not mentioned.

- Add images showing each reaction

2) Reactions Section

- Add more reactions that are possible with acyl halides

- Improve captions of images (explain them better

- Talk about conditions needed for the reactions to take place

3) Hazards Section

- Expand more on the information in this section

4) References Section:

- Some of the references are unable to be viewed by the public and reader has to pay to read them, therefore going to find alternative sources

- Find sources for claims that do not have a reference or evidence

:"Some of the references are unable to be viewed by the public and reader has to pay to read them" those are the premier references.--Smokefoot (talk) 02:28, 14 March 2024 (UTC)

If you already have a page that covers all acyl halides, why create a separate page for acyl fluoride, chloride, etc? Cre81ve master (talk) 03:30, 5 April 2013 (UTC)

I know, right? The article claims this specific class of compound to be more important than any other, then doesn't bother to explain why. I think the distinction is silly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 169.235.83.212 (talk) 05:58, 20 April 2013 (UTC)

• Oppose - Acyl halides undergo different reactions strongly depending on the halide, and acyl chloride is the most commonly encountered acyl halide. Plasmic Physics (talk) 11:52, 4 May 2013 (UTC)

• Oppose per above. ComfyKem (talk) 00:28, 16 June 2013 (UTC)
