Unimolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction in which the reversible ionization of
If the leaving group in
An enantiomer, also known as an optical isomer, is one of two stereoisomers that are mirror images of each other that are non-superimposable.
(b)
Interpretation:
The formation of two products in the given reaction should be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Unimolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction in which the reversible ionization of alkyl halide in the presence of aqueous acetone or an aqueous ethyl alcohol provides a carbocation as an intermediate, attacked by the nucleophile to form the product.
If the leaving group in
An enantiomer, also known as an optical isomer, is one of two stereoisomers that are mirror images of each other that are non-superimposable.
(c)
Interpretation:
Reason for the single substation products obtained in the given reaction should be explained.
Concept Introduction:

- Label the electrophilic and nucleophilic sites in each molecule.arrow_forwardBy taking into account electronegativity differences, draw the products formed by heterolysis of the carbon–heteroatom bond in each molecule. Classify the organic reactive intermediate as a carbocation or a carbanion.arrow_forwardCHOOSE THE LETTER OF THE CORRECT ANSWER. 1. An aldehyde commonly exhibits a nucleophilic addition type of reaction. When a nucleophile attacks a carbonyl carbon, what happens to the oxygen atom in the structure? Refer to the structure below. a. Oxygen atom obtains a net negative charge. b. Oxygen atom acts as the new electrophile. c. Oxygen atom becomes more electronegative. d. Oxygen atom transforms to an alkoxide group.arrow_forward
- Draw the products of each reaction.arrow_forwardWhat is the likely mechanism of nucleophilic substitution for each alkyl halide?arrow_forwardItem 2 Draw the organic products formed in each reaction. Consider both substitution and elimination products, if possible. Indicate the type of reaction that happened (SN1, SN2, E1, E2). Include stereochemistry and regiochemistry if relevant. For multiple products, identify which is the major and which is th]e minor product. a. b. C. d. e. H₂C 9H **** CH3 CH₂CH3 Br Br CH₂CH C6H5 Br -OC(CH3)3 OC(CH3)3 CH3CH₂OH TOH CH₂OHarrow_forward
