Chapter 9.7, Problem 26P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

How the rate of the reaction between an amine and alkyl halide if polarity of the solvent increased has to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

The SN2/E2 reaction of alkyl halide is with neutral nucleophile/base, the increasing polarity of the solvent will increase the rate of the reaction is to be identified.  An SN2 reaction of an alkyl halide is favoured by a high concentration of a good (neutral)

in a protic polar solvent.
