Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Suitable nucleophile and alkyl iodide must be identified for the preparation of butan-1-ol.
Concept Introduction :
The SN2 substitution can be used to prepare primary alcohols from primary
(b)
Interpretation:
Suitable combination of alkyl iodide and nucleophile must be identified for the preparation of butyl ethanoate.
Concept Introduction :
The SN2 reaction can be used for for the preparation of ester using sodium salt of
(c)
Interpretation:
The suitable combination of iodoalkane and nucleophile must be identified for the given cyano compound.
Concept Introduction :
The SN2 reaction is characterized by inversion of configuration which is caused due to backside attack of the nucleophile.
(d)
Interpretation:
For the given thiol, proper iodoalkane and nucleophile must be identified.
Concept Introduction:
The SN2 reaction is associated with inversion of configuration. Proper stereochemistry of starting material must be chosen to get the desired stereochemistry of product after inversion of configuration.
