REACTION  with Na, Mg and chloral Haloarenes are chemically less reactive than haloalkanes. They can undergo the following reactions:
Nucleophilic reactions of haloalkanes Replacement by alkoxy group (Formation of ethers) - Williamson Synthesis
Substitution by Nitrite Group The halogen atom of haloalkane gets substituted by nitrite group (-O-N=O) when it is treated with sodium or potassium
Preparation of haloarenes Preparative methods of haloarenes are: Direct halogenation of aromatic ring Direct chlorination or
