Chapter 23, Problem 45P

a. Explain why the alkyl halide shown here reacts much more rapidly with guanine than does a primary alkyl halide (such as pentyl chloride).

Chapter 23, Problem 45P, a. Explain why the alkyl halide shown here reacts much more rapidly with guanine than does a primary

b. The alkyl halide can react with two guanines, each in a different DNA chain, thereby cross-linking the chains. Propose a mechanism for the cross-linking reaction.
