Two substitution products result from the
reaction between 3-chloro-3-methyl-1-
butene with sodium acetate (CH3COO – Na +)
in acetic acid under SN1.
Identify the products.
Q4 Which statement below about Sn1 reactions is incorrect?
(A) SN1 reactions are stepwise and have intermediates.
(B) The slow step in a SN1 reaction is formation of the carbocation intermediate.
(C) SN1 reactions have first order kinetics which means only the alkyl halide is involved in the rate limiting step.
(D) The products of a SN1 reaction will be a pair of enantiomers.
(E) An aprotic solvent is best for Sn1 reactions as they tend to help stabilize carbocation intermediates.
Draw the structure of the unbranched isomer of C5H11Br that is most reactive in an SN1 reaction.
