Alcohol formation (R represents any hydrocarbon chain) R—X + OH- R—OH + XPrimary and secondary alkyl halides undergo alkaline hydrolysis to the alcohol while tertiary alkyl halides can be hydrolysed by water. Aryl halides do not undergo hydrolysis except under VERY SEVERE conditions. Industrially chlorobenzene is reacted with

group bonds to the positive carbon atom, and the negative oxygen and metallic magnesium form an ionic bond, yielding a salt in each reaction. The addition product is acidified in each case to make a covalent alcohol. The aldehyde produces a IIo alcohol; whereas, the ketone produces a IIIo alcohol owing to the R′′ group. The two equations for addition reactions in Figure 1 are summarized in Figure 2. A nucleophile (negative species) bonds to the carbonyl carbon (positive), breaking the π bond of
