Chapter 9, Problem 9.14P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structural formula for the product of given SN2 reaction has to be drawn.

Concept Introduction:

  • SN2 reaction: It is a nucleophilic substitution reaction in which the rate determining step depends on both alkyl halide and the nucleophile present. The bond making and the bond breaking process happens simultaneously in this reaction, which results in the inversion of configuration.
  • Rate= k[alkylhalide]×[nucleophile]
  • Structure of the substrate plays a major role in SN2 reaction. If the substrate is more substituted the rate of the reaction becomes slower. Since the mechanism of SN2 reaction proceeds through backside attack on the substrate it depends on steric factor of reactant and nucleophile.
  • Polar aprotic solvent is good for SN2 reaction because it is not interact with nucleophile.
  • Less basic good or moderate nucleophile is good for SN2 reaction because it is not abstract a proton only attacks the positive center only.
