Step-by-Step Solution

Verified

Answer

$C H_{3} C H_{2} C H_{2} C H_{2} B r + N a C N \to C H_{3} C H_{2} C H_{2} C H_{2} C N + N a B r$

1S N 2 reaction

Nucleophilic substitution reaction in which old bonds are broken, and new bonds are formed simultaneously. Therefore, the response takes place in a single step.

The two reacting species are involved in the rate determining steps.

2Formation of C H 3 C H 2 C H 2 C H 2 C N

Here, nucleophilic substitution occurs where NaBr is produced and the desired product is formed.

The two reacting species are involved in the rate determining steps.

$C H_{3} C H_{2} C H_{2} C H_{2} B r + N a C N \to C H_{3} C H_{2} C H_{2} C H_{2} C N + N a B r$
