Question

Draw the products of attached nucleophilic substitution reaction.

Expert Solution

Step 1

In chemistry various mechanism are studied. Some of important mechanisms are nucleophilic substitution, nucleophilic addition, electrophilic addition.

Step 2

In nucleophilic substitution reaction, an atom of reactant molecule is substituted by a nucleophile. Nucleophile has lone pairs or negative charge on them, which makes them electron donor. This mechanism is of two types SN¹and SN². Here SN¹ mechanism is followed. It is so because here tertiary halide is present. In SN¹ mechanism, carbocation is formed. Tertiary carbocation is most stable. Polar protic solvent helps in this reaction.
