How do you make $"hydrocarbyl halides"$ ?

By radical halogenation of an alkane......

$RCH_2R' + X_2stackrel(hnu)rarrRCHXR'+HX$

By hydrohalogenation of halogenation of an olefin.....

$RCH=CH_2+ HXrarrRCH(Br)-CH_3$

$RCH=CHR'+X_2rarrRCH(X)-CH(X)R'$

From alcohols.......and thionyl halides or acids.....

$RCH_2OHstackrel(O=SX_2)rarrRCH_2X+SO_2+HX$

$RCH_2OHstackrel(HX)rarrRCH_2X+H_2O$
