Question 20 ### Understanding SN1 Reactions: Conditions and Mechanisms**Question:** What set of reaction conditions would favor an SN1 reaction on 2-bromo-3-methylbutane?#### Answer Choices:- **Option 1:** weak nucleophile in a protic solvent- **Option 2:** weak nucleophile in an aprotic solvent- **Option 3:** strong nucleophile in a protic solvent- **Option 4:** strong nucleophile in an aprotic solvent### Explanation:An SN1 reaction (unimolecular nucleophilic substitution) typically involves two main steps:1. **Formation of a carbocation intermediate:** The leaving group (bromine in this case) dissociates from the substrate, forming a carbocation.2. **Nucleophilic attack:** The nucleophile attacks the carbocation to form the final product.#### Key Factors that Favor SN1 Reactions:1. **Type of Solvent:** - **Protic Solvents:** These solvents stabilize the carbocation intermediate via hydrogen bonding and solvation, making it easier for the leaving group to dissociate. 2. **Strength of the Nucleophile:** - **Weak Nucleophile:** Since the rate-determining step of an SN1 reaction is the formation of the carbocation (which does not involve the nucleophile), a weak nucleophile is sufficient for the subsequent step.From the above factors, it's clear that an SN1 reaction is favored by **a weak nucleophile in a protic solvent**. Therefore:### Correct Answer:- **Option 1:** weak nucleophile in a protic solventThis educational insight underlines the importance of understanding the reaction conditions that favor specific reaction mechanisms in organic chemistry.
