QUESTION 6 6) Select a FALSE statement about the SN2 & E2 mechanisms for the reaction between an Alkyl Halide (RX) reactant and an anionic reagent that could act as Nucleophile (Nu") or Brønsted Base (B): A) There is NO involvement of reactive intermediates in either mechanism. B) E2 mechanism involves simultaneous loss of the halide and loss of a B-proton in one step C) SN2 mechanism involves stereospecific attack of nucleophile from the opposite side of the leaving group D) Both mechanisms have the SAME type of rate equation rate = k [RX] 4 OA OB ос OD
