Question
Chapter 8, Problem 36P
(a)
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
From the given molecules, more reactive
Concept Introduction:
- The SN2 reaction is a type of reaction mechanism in which one bond is broken and one bond is formed i.e., in one step. SN2 is a kind of nucleophilic substitution reaction mechanism.
- Steric effect is the effect due to the groups occupies a certain volume of space.
- Steric hindrance is caused by the bulky groups at the site of a reaction that makes it difficult for the reactants to approach each other.
(b)
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
From the given molecules, more reactive alkyl halide has to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
- The SN2 reaction is a type of reaction mechanism in which one bond is broken and one bond is formed i.e., in one step. SN2 is a kind of nucleophilic substitution reaction mechanism.
- Leaving propensity depends on the basicity because weak base are stable bases; the readily bear the electrons. Thus they do not share the electrons.
(c)
