Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The product formed by the reaction sequence,

${\text{CH}}_{\text{2}}{\left({\text{CO}}_{\text{2}}\text{Et}\right)}_{\text{2}}+{\text{BrCH}}_{\text{2}}{\text{CH}}_{\text{2}}{\text{CH}}_{\text{2}}\text{Cl}\underset{\text{EtOH}}{\overset{\text{2}\text{}\text{NaOEt}}{\to }}\stackrel{\text{NaOH}}{\to }\underset{\text{heat}}{\overset{\text{HCl}}{\to }}\left({\text{C}}_{\text{5}}{\text{H}}_{\text{8}}{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}\right)$

with explanation is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The nucleophilic substitution reactions are the reactions in which one nucleophile is substituted by another nucleophile. These reactions depend upon the nucleophilicity and concentration of the nucleophile. It is of two types, ${\text{S}}_{\text{N}}\text{1}$ and ${\text{S}}_{\text{N}}\text{2}$.
