Question
Chapter 23, Problem 23.89QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Reason behind in the lack of optical activity in the 2- chlorobutane.
Concept introduction:
Electrophile (negative-charge loving): A molecule or ion that accepts a pair of electrons to make a new covalent bond is called an electrophile.
Electrophiles are neutral or positively charged species, having vacant orbitals and attracted electron towards itself.
Electrophilic substitution reactions: an electrophile replaces a functional group in a compound, which is typically, but not always, a hydrogen atom.
