**Conversion Reaction Problem****Objective**: Identify the necessary reagent to convert the given compound.**Chemical Reaction**:- The structure on the left shows an alkene with a chlorine (Cl) substituent.- The structure on the right shows the same alkene with an azide (N₃) substituent.**Question**: Provide the reagents necessary to carry out the following conversion.**Options**:- **A**: HN₃ in water- **B**: HN₃ in acetonitrile- **C**: NaN₃ in acetonitrile (Correct Option)- **D**: NaN₃ in water**Diagrams**:- The reaction diagram features a two-dimensional representation of the molecular structures involved in the conversion.- The transformation involves the replacement of a chlorine atom with an azide group on an alkene backbone.**Explanation**:This conversion typically involves the use of sodium azide (NaN₃) in an organic solvent like acetonitrile to facilitate nucleophilic substitution, particularly beneficial for replacing halides with azide groups.

Given reaction is nucleophilic substitution reaction. N3 substitutes Cl. Here given alkyl halide is 1° alkyl halide and it favors SN2 mechanism. In SN2 mechanism bond breaking with leaving group and bond forming with incoming group is simultaneously. SN2 reactions are favorable with polar aprotic solvent. Acetonitrile is polar aprotic solvent. Water is polar protic solvent. So here we required nucleophile(NaN3) with polar aprotic solvent i. E acetonitrile. So correct answer is C. NaN3 in acetonitrile C. NaN3 in acetonitrile.
