Q 11-11-20 P-a
Question
Tell whether each of the following reactions is likely to be SN1, SN2, E1, E1cB or E2:
a)
Step-by-Step Solution
Verified Answer
a) The given reaction is SN2 reaction.
1S N 2 reaction
A SN2 reaction is bimolecular and is a nucleophilic substitution reaction. In this reaction, bond breaking and forming take place simultaneously. A transition state is formed where a bond is made, and a broken bond is seen.
2Whether the reaction is S N 1, S N 2, E1, E1cB or E2:
a) The given reaction occur by a mechanism because the substrate of the reaction is primary, and the nucleophile is nonbasic. The product formed is a substitution product.
