Chapter 6, Problem 33P

1-Bromobicyclo[2, 2,1] heptane is extremely unreactive in either S N 2 or S N 1 reactions. Provide explanations for this behavior.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
Alkenyl halides such as vinyl bromide, CH2=CHBr, undergo neither SN1 nor SN2 reactions. What factors account for this lack of reactivity?
When 2-bromobutane is reacted with CH3O-, two alkene products, namely 2-butene and 1-butene are obtained.  Explain why the E2 reaction produces 2-butene as the major product (80%) and 1-butene as the minor product (20%)
2) Rank these molecules by their SN2 reaction rate. If a difference in reaction rate is hard to predict, you may group molecules with similar reactivity. CI CI Br CI CI A D E B
