In nucleophilic aromatic substitution reactions that proceed by the nucleophilic addition-elimination mechanism, thereaction rate increases as the electronegativity of the halogen leaving group increases: Ar-I < Ar-Br < Ar-CI <Ar-F. Which step does this suggest is the rate-determining step of the mechanism-the addition step or theelimination step? Explain.

In SN2 reactions of haloalkanes, the order of reactivity is RI>RBr>RCl>RF. Alkyl iodides are considerably more reactive than alkyl fluorides, often by factors as great as 106. All 1-halo-2,4-dinitrobenzenes, however, react at approximately the same rate in nucleophilic aromatic substitutions. Account for this difference in relative reactivities.

Alkyl halides undergo nucleophilic substitution and elimination reactions. When the kinetics of the reaction are measured, if the rate of the reaction is found to be dependent only upon the concentration of the alkyl halide the reaction is first order. The substitution reaction is thus termed SN1, and the elimination reaction is termed E1. These reactions are unimolecular and occur in two steps. The first step is rate-limiting and involves the loss of the leaving group to form a carbocation. In the second, fast, step the nucleophile adds to the carbocation in the SN1 reaction or elimination occurs to give an alkene in the E1 reaction. Because the carbocation is planar, the nucleophile can add to either face and therefore racemization is usually observed although solvent effects can influence this somewhat. E1 elimination follows Zaitsev’s rule and typically yields the most substituted alkene as the major product. Conditions which favor the SN1/E1 pathway include the use of a weak…
