Interpretation:
The structure of an isomer of the allylic halide reactant
Concept introduction:
The nucleophilic substitution reactions are the reactions in which one nucleophile is substituted by another nucleophile. These reactions depend upon the nucleophilicity and concentration of the incoming nucleophile. The

Question
(a) Discuss why the reactivity of nitration towards benzene increases when a mixture
concentrated nitric acid (HNO:) mixed with sulphuric acid (H2SO4). You may explain it
from the aspect of electrophile formed in the reaction between HNO3 and H2SO4.
(i)
Explain why a high reaction temperature favours elimination reactions, instead of
substitution reactions.
(ii)
Explain why polar aprotic solvents favour Sn2 reaction but not favour SN1 reaction.
1. The acid catalyzed synthesis of diethyl ether occurs via and SN2 reaction although a protic
solvent is used. Discuss in your group why this substitution cannot occur via an SN1 reaction, and
why E1 and E2 reactions do not occur. Your answer should be in complete sentences and use
appropriate vocabulary to describe the molecules involved.
