(a)
Interpretation:
The products of the following reaction should be drawn along with the mechanism for the formation. Whether the given transformation is faster in polar, aprotic solvent in comparison to polar, protic solvent should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
The
The chemical reaction in which displacement of leaving group occurs by a nucleophile is known as nucleophilic substitution reaction.
The reaction between nucleophile (electron pair donor) and electrophile (electron pair acceptor) is known as nucleophilic substitution reaction. It is classified as SN1 and SN2 reaction.
The solvents which are capable of forming hydrogen bonds due to the presence of at least one hydrogen linked with electronegative atom is known as polar protic solvents whereas the solvents in which no hydrogen atoms are linked with electronegative atom and also incapable of hydrogen bonding is known as
