- Briefly Explain the SN2 and SN1 reactions with their mechanism by taking theexamples of alkaline hydrolysis of methyl bromide and t-butylbromide.arrow_forwardState the characteristic of the SN2 and SN1 mechanism towards alkyl halide compounds based onmolecularity, reaction rate constant, formation of product(s), reactivity of alkyl halides and thestrength of nucleophile.arrow_forwardPropanal and propanone react in a similar way with acidified aqueous potassium cyanide, KCN. For this reaction to occur reasonably quickly, the pH of the solution should be approximately 4. The reaction of propanal proceeds with acidified potassium cyanide proceeds more rapidly than that of propanone. Referring to the mechanism of the reactions, explain this phenomenon.arrow_forward
- Describe all the steps of the reaction related to obtaining fumaric acid starting from maleic anhydride by writing the reaction mechanisms in detail.arrow_forwardTwo mechanisms are among those that have been postulated for decomposition of aryl diazonium salts in aqueous solution containing nucleophilic anions, A—:arrow_forward(17, 18, 5) Give the relative rates of reaction of the four carboxylic acid derivatives below with aqueous sodium hydroxide to give the sodium carboxylate salt.arrow_forward
- Briefly explain why, under aqueous acidic conditions, furan readily undergoes a reversible ring opening reaction to give succinaldehyde.arrow_forwardAccount 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_forwardIn the electrophilic aromatic substitution of toluene formation of 4-chlorotoluene is favored over 3-chlorotoluene. Explain this observation by writing the reaction mechanism.?arrow_forward
