Write an Sn1 and Sn2 reaction with the same final product and explain please! Thank you- Suggest an experimental method, how we could distinguish if the orthoester shown below hydrolyses in an acidic water by an SN1 or SN2 mechanism! Recall that an SN2 at a tertiary carbon is uncommon. So, this is not one of the choices, but the SN2 means the pathway, where water attacks one of the Omethyl groups. Draw the probable pathways and think over, what kind of experiments and structure related comparisons could be done. OCH3 H*/H₂O + 2 CH3OH OCH3 OCH3 OCH 3
