Q 11-11-21 E-a
Question
Write the product you would expect from reaction of each of the following alkyl halides with (1)Na+-SCH3 and (2)Na+-OH (green = Cl):
a)
Step-by-Step Solution
Verified Answer
a) The reaction of alkyl halide with Na+-SCH3 and Na+-OH, both yields substitution products.
1S N 2 reaction
A SN2 reaction involves the nucleophilic attack by the hydroxide ion to the carbon of alkyl halide and results in carbanion intermediate formation. In the second step, the C-halogen bond breaks and results in alcohol as a product.
2The product expected when alkyl halide reacts with Na +- SCH 3 and Na +- OH
The reaction of alkyl halide with Na+-SCH3 and Na+-OH and, yields substitution products. This is because the substrate present is primary, and both nucleophiles are strong.
