When phenol + tert butyl-chloride + AlCl3 (lewis acid) are added together in a mechanism, how come para product is the one that prevails? Is it because of the steric hindrance/bulkiness of the tert butyl-chloride? So if it was just CH3-Cl, the major product would be ortho instead of para?

For SN1 Explain the order in which 1o (primary) alkyl halides reacted (fastest to slowest) and explain why. The 1o primary alkyl halides are: (see picture below) 1-chlorobutane 1-bromobutane 1-chloro-2butene benzylchloride
Which of the following pairs of compounds reacts with OH- ions faster in an SN2 reaction? Briefly explain. CH3Br or CH3I? 2-chloro-2-methylpropane or chloromethane?
For which reaction mechanisms—SN1, SN2, E1, or E2—of thefollowing statement true? A statement may be true for one or moremechanisms. Tertiary (3°) alkyl halides react faster than 2° or 1° alkyl halides.
Under second-order conditions (strong base/nucleophile), SN2 and E2 reactions may occur simultaneously and compete with each other. Show what products might be expected from the reaction of 2-bromo-3-methyl butane (a moderately hindered 2∘ alkyl halide) with sodium ethoxide. Do not worry about stereochemistry in the SN2 product for this problem. Don't forget about stereochemistry.

Which reactions will proceed faster in a polar, aprotic solvent? (CH3)2CHCH2I+Na+N3−(CH3)2CHCH2I+Na+N3− (CH3)3CBr+HSCH2CH3(CH3)3CBr+HSCH2CH3 CH3CH2CH2Br+Na+CN−CH3CH2CH2Br+Na+CN− (CH3)2CHOSO2CH3+HOCH(CH3)2
Why we need step 3 before step 4? a. Because the nitro group increases the electrophilicity at the ortho positions which is where the bromine is added. b. Because the amine group is a strong ortho, para director which is what controls the regiochemical outcome of this bromination. c. Step 4 is unessesary. The symmetry of compound 3 allows for the bromination to be regioselective and give compound 5. 5. There will be a mixture of products because there is no selectivity for a major product.
