A common method where one alkyl halide is converted to another alkyl halide is known as Finkelstein reaction. In one example of this reaction the reaction of an alkyl chloride with potassium iodide is generally carry out in acetone to maximize the amount of alkyl iodine that this formed. Why does the solvent increase the amount of alkyl iodide. Hint: potassium idioide is soluble in acetone but potassium chloride is not.
The reaction of an amine with an alkyl halide gives an ammonium salt. The rate of this SN2 reaction is sensitive to the polarity of the solvent. Draw an energy diagram for this reaction in a nonpolar solvent and another in a polar solvent. Consider the nature of the transition state, and explain why this reaction should be sensitive to the polarity of the solvent. Predict whether it will be faster or slower in a more polar solvent.
When performing a nucleophilic substitution reaction and not knowing the structure of the starting material or product, how can you form a method to determine whether the reaction proceeds via an SN1 or SN2 mechanism?
