Textbook Question
Chapter 17.SE, Problem 60AP
Benzvl chloride can be converted into benzaldehvde by treatment with nitromethane and base. The reaction involves initial conversion of nitromethane into its anion, followed by SN2 reaction of the anion with benzyl chloride and subsequent Ε2 reaction. Write the mechanism in detail, using curved arrows to indicate the electron flow in each step.
