Explain your answer.arrow_forwardWhich alkyl halide in each pair reacts faster in an SN1 reaction?arrow_forward
- Which of these alkyl halides do you expect to be most reactive in a reaction SN2 for a given nucleophile? Show the reason.arrow_forwardDraw the more stable carbocation for each of the molecules below. Assume they are undergoing an SN1/E1 reaction.arrow_forwardIn the box to the left of each reaction below, write the mechanism by which it occurs (could be SN1, SN2, or E1, or even 2 of them). Then draw the product(s).arrow_forward
