Chapter 7.8, Problem 15P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: The stronger nucleophile out of Br and Cl in a polar protic solvent is to be identified.

Concept introduction: Solvent is required to dissolve the starting material in it. The substitution reaction involves polar starting reactant which is soluble in polar solvent. A solvent in which hydrogen atom is bonded to electronegative O or N atom is termed as polar protic solvent. The nucleophilicity of anion that has small size is higher than the anion that has larger size.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation: The stronger nucleophile out of Br and Cl in a polar aprotic solvent is to be identified.

Concept introduction: Solvent is required to dissolve the starting material in it. The substitution reaction involves polar starting reactant which is soluble in polar solvent. A solvent in which hydrogen atom is bonded to electronegative O or N atom is termed as polar protic solvent. However, in polar aprotic solvent, OH bond or NH is absent.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation: The stronger nucleophile out of HS and F in a polar protic solvent is to be identified.

Concept introduction: Solvent is required to dissolve the starting material in it. The substitution reaction involves polar starting reactant which is soluble in polar solvent. A solvent in which hydrogen atom is bonded to electronegative O or N atom is termed as polar protic solvent. The nucleophilicity of anion that has small size is higher than the anion that has larger size.

(EXM 2, PRBLM 3) Here is this problem, can you explain it to me and show how its done. Thank you I need to see the work for like prbl solving.
can someone draw out the reaction mechanism for this reaction showing all bonds, intermediates and side products Comment on the general features of the 1H-NMR spectrum of isoamyl ester provided below
What would be the best choices for the missing reagents 1 and 3 in this synthesis? 1. PPh3 3 2. n-BuLi • Draw the missing reagents in the drawing area below. You can draw them in any arrangement you like. • Do not draw the missing reagent 2. If you draw 1 correctly, we'll know what it is. • Note: if one of your reagents needs to contain a halogen, use bromine. Click and drag to start drawing a structure.
