Chapter 8.4, Problem 13P

Arrange the following alkyl halides in order from most reactive to least reactive in an SN1 reaction: 2-bromo-2-methylpentane, 2-choloro-2-methylpentane, 3-choropentane, and 2-iodo-2-methylpentane:

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
Arrange the following alky halides in order of decreasing reactivity in an SN1 reaction: 2-bromopentane, 2-chloropentane, 1-chloropentane, 3-bromo-3-methylpentane
For SN2 Explain the order in which 1o (primary) alkyl halides reacted and explain why. The 1o primary alkyl halides are: (see picture below) 1-chlorobutane 1-bromobutane 1-chloro-2butene benzylchloride
Explain why 1-bromo-2,2-dimethylpropane has difficulty undergoing both SN2 and SN1 reactions.
