WHAT DOES ACYL HALIDE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Acyl halide

An acyl halide is a chemical compound derived from an oxoacid by replacing a hydroxyl group with a halide group. If the acid is a carboxylic acid, the compound contains a –COX functional group, which consists of a carbonyl group singly bonded to a halogen atom. The general formula for such an acyl halide can be written RCOX, where R may be, for example, an alkyl group, CO is the carbonyl group, and X represents the halide, such as chloride. Acyl chlorides are the most commonly encountered acyl halides, but acetyl iodide is the one produced on the largest scale. Billions of kilograms are generated annually in the production of acetic acid. The hydroxyl group of a sulfonic acid may also be replaced by a halogen to produce the corresponding sulfonyl halide. In practical terms this is almost always chloride to give the sulfonyl chloride.

Definition of acyl halide in the English dictionary

The definition of acyl halide in the dictionary is any derivative of carboxylic acid in which the hydroxyl group has been replaced by a halogen atom Also called: acid halide.
