Explanation of Solution
The given reaction is
The given substrate is a secondary alkyl halide. Chlorine is a moderately good leaving group. Bromide ion is a strong nucleophile. An
In the above reaction, the bromide ion attacks the carbon, to which the leaving group, chlorine, is attached from the side opposite the leaving group. In the product, the chlorine atom is replaced by a bromine atom.

Answer to Problem 8.1P
Mechanism for the given
Explanation of Solution
The given reaction is
The first step is the breaking of carbon-chlorine bond. This will generate a secondary carbocation intermediate. In the second step, the electron rich
The leaving group is lost and forms a carbocation as follows:
