Chapter 7, Problem 7.58P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

To rank the given organic halides in order of increasing SN2 reactivity.

Concept introduction:

SN2 reaction is a special type of reaction mechanism in organic chemistry. It is kind of nucleophilic substitution reaction. 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. Alkyl halides are organic molecules that contains a halogen atom X bonded to sp3 hybridized carbon atom. Alkyl halides are classified as primary (1°), secondary (2°), and tertiary (3°) depending on the number of carbons bonded to the carbon with the halogen.
