(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

From the given species stronger base has to be identified.

Concept Introduction:

  • Aprotic solvent are polar solvent molecules which do not have hydrogen bonded to oxygen to nitrogen.
  • Protic solvent are polar solvent molecules which do have hydrogen bonded to oxygen to nitrogen.
  • The stronger base is always a better nucleophile in an aprotic solvent.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The better nucleophile in aqueous solution has to be identified.

Concept Introduction:

  • Aprotic solvent are polar solvent molecules which do not have hydrogen bonded to oxygen to nitrogen.
  • Protic solvent are polar solvent molecules which do have hydrogen bonded to oxygen to nitrogen.
  • The stronger base is always a better nucleophile in an aprotic solvent.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The better nucleophile in DMSO solution has to be identified.

Concept Introduction:

  • Aprotic solvent are polar solvent molecules which do not have hydrogen bonded to oxygen to nitrogen.
  • Protic solvent are polar solvent molecules which do have hydrogen bonded to oxygen to nitrogen
  • The stronger base is always a better nucleophile in an aprotic solvent.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
Which nucleophile in each pair is more reactive?
Would you say its sn1 ir sn2, I said it was sn1,because the nucleophile is weak, but my teachers said it was sn2
Identify the stronger nucleophile in each pair of anions. a.Br− or Cl− in a polar protic solvent b.HO− or Cl− in a polar aprotic solvent c.HS− or F− in a polar protic solvent
