Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The absolute configuration of the alkyl chloride obtained from the reaction of thionyl chloride with (S)-CH3CH2CH2CHDOH is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The nucleophilic substitution reactions are the reactions in which one nucleophile is substituted by the another nucleophile. These reactions depend upon the nucleophilicity and concentration of the incoming nucleophile.

The SN2 reaction is a nucleophilic substitution bimolecular single step reaction in which the addition of incoming nucleophile and removal of outgoing nucleophile takes place simultaneously.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The absolute configuration of 2-bromopentane obtained from the reaction of Ph3PBr2 with the R enantiomer of 2-pentanol is to be stated.

Concept introduction:
