- Can you do 5,6,7 and explain it? State the mechanism in which through reaction proceeds sn2 or sn1 and can you explain the process of the mechanismarrow_forwardShow the reaction mechanism for the formation of:a. RCONH2 from the reaction of RCOOR’ with NH3arrow_forwardWhen bromomethane undergoes solvolysis in a solvent mixture composed of 90% water/10% acetone, the reaction rate is faster than when the same compound is solvolyzed in 80% water/20% acetone. Explain.arrow_forward
- Does the reaction likely proceed by the Su1, Su2, E1, or E2 mechanism?arrow_forwardis this an E1 or E2 mechanism for this reaction? What is the major product and mechanism for it?arrow_forwardFor each reaction, give the expected substitution product, and predict whether the mechanism will be predominantly first order (SN1) or second order (SN2). (a) cyclohexyl bromide + methanolarrow_forward
- Account for the following: In a polar solvent such as water, the SN1 and E1 reactions of a tertiary alkyl halide have the same rate.arrow_forwardGive a mechanism for the first step of the reaction and explain why it goes in the direction it does.arrow_forwardDraw the reaction mechanism of the E2 reaction between 2-chloro-2-methylpentane with potasium hydroxide, KOHarrow_forward
