The SN1 mechanism starts with the rate-determining step which is the dissociation of the alkyl halide into a carbocation and a halide ion. The next step is the rapid reaction of the carbocation intermediate with the nucleophile; this step completes the nucleophilic substitution stage. The step that follows the nucleophilic substitution is a fast acid-base reaction. The nucleophile now acts as a base to remove the proton from the oxonium ion from the previous step, to give the observed product. Draw a curved arrow mechanism for the reaction, adding steps as necessary. Be sure to include all nonzero formal charges.

O The rate is independent of the leaving group.
Please answer the two items. The following compounds are major products of an elimination reaction with an alkyl halide. Determine the structure of the alkyl halide.

6. Unlike an Sn2 reaction, where the leaving group departs and the nucleophile approaches at the same time, the leaving group in an SN1, departs before the nucleophile approaches. In an SN1 reaction, the mechanism shows the carbocation is formed in the rate-determining step. The following are observed for the relative rates of SN1 reactions. Classify the alkyl halide as methyl, primary, secondary, or tertiary. Draw the structure of the carbocation intermediates. SN1 R-Br H20 R-OH HBr Class of RX Structure of Intermediate Carbocation Relative rate (methyl, 1°, 2°, or 3°?) H3C-Br 1.0 CH3CH2-Br 1.0 CH;CH2CH2-Br 5.0 CH3CH-Br CH3 11.6 CH3 CH3C-Br CH3 1,200,000
All of the following are true of SN2 reactions except: The rate of the SN2 reaction of a substrate and a nucleophile is the same as the rate of the E2 reaction of the same two compounds. The rate varies with the concentration of nucleophile The rate varies with the type of nucleophile The nucleophile is involved in the rate-determining step
