Chapter 7, Problem 7.14P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Predict whether it is possible to convert CH3CH2CH2OH to CH3CH2CH2CI by a nucleophilic substitution reaction with NaCl and explain why or why not.

Concept introduction:

Nucleophilic substitutions are Lewis acid-base reactions. In this reaction the nucleophile donates its electron pair, the alkyl halide (Lewis acid) accepts it, and the C-X bond is heterolytically cleaved.
