- Rank the nucleophiles in each group in order of increasing nucleophilicity. a.−OH, −NH2, H2O b.−OH, Br−, F− (polar aprotic solvent) c.H2O, −OH, CH3CO2−arrow_forwardWhich is best nucleophile?arrow_forwardIdentify the stronger nucleophile in the following pair of anions. HO− or Cl− in a polar aprotic solventarrow_forward
- Draw the product of nucleophilic substitution with each neutral nucleophile. When the initial substitution product can lose a proton to form a neutral product, draw the product after proton transfer.arrow_forward10. Consider the below reaction between the acetylide ion and methanol. Draw the conjugate acid that is formed as a product in this reaction.arrow_forwardOptions for each: blank 1: A B blank 2: it has a better leaving group it is a polar aprotic solvent it has a stronger nucleophile blank 3: A B blank 4: it forms a more stable carbocation it has a better solvent it has a better leaving group blank 5: A B blank 6: it has a better solvent it has a better leaving group it has a stronger nucleophilearrow_forward
- Is this a good or a bad nucleophile?arrow_forwardDraw the product of nucleophilic substitution with each neutral nucleophile. When the initial substitution product can lose a proton to form a neutral product, draw the product after proton transfer.arrow_forwardPolar aprotic solvents enhance the rate of an SN2 reaction by stabilizing the cations and the anions. changing the polarizibility of the nucleophile. raising the energy of the nucleophile. O lowering the energy of the nucleophile. Save for Laterarrow_forward
