For SN1
Explain if 3o ( tertiary) alkyl halides reacted (fastest or slowest) explain why. Be sure to explain if alkyl halides did not react or did react and why.
3o (tertiary) compounds listed are:
2-chloro-2-methylpropane (see picture)
Base your explanations on the following considerations: the nature of leaving group, the effect of structure, steric hindrance and any other feature.

The question is: "Draw the curved arrow mechanism for the reaction between (2S,3S)-3-methylhexan-2-ol and PCl3. Note the specific instructions for each box. Include nonzero formal charges and lone pairs of electrons on all appropriate atoms" I attached screenshots of the picture of the atoms below. What type of reaction (SN1, E1, SN2, or E2) would the reaction be, and how would these molecules interact? The question asks for multiple steps so I am guessing it is either SN1 or E1, but what is the reaction mechanism?
