Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The mechanism for reaction of butylamine, ${\text{CH}}_{\text{3}}{\left({\text{CH}}_{\text{2}}\right)}_{\text{3}}{\ddot{\text{N}}\text{H}}_{\text{2}}$, with $\text{1-bromobutane}$ which is consistent with it rate law and with the other facts about nucleophilic substitution reaction is to be predicted. The mechanism for reaction of $\text{3-bromopropan-1-amine}$ which is consistent with it rate law and with the other facts about nucleophilic substitution reaction is to be predicted.

Concept introduction:

The replacement or substitution of one functional group with another different functional group in any chemical reaction is termed as substitution reaction. In nucleophilic substitution reaction, nucleophile takes the position of leaving group by attacking on the electron deficient carbon atom.
