Below is the equation for a nucleophilic substitution reaction and some experimental data. CH3CH2Br + CH3COO- ⇌ CH3CH2CO2CH3 + Br- ΔH=-75 kJ/mol Rate = k [CH3CH2Br][CH3COO-] Which reaction energy profile would be the best representative of the data provided?
Organometallic reagents and alkoxides are strong bases as well as being good nucleophiles. Given the pKa values below, which reagent is the stronger base, nBuLi (CH3CH2CH2CH2LI) or the tert-butoxide anion ((CH3)3CO‒)? Explain your choice clearly in terms of structure andbonding. (Comparing the pKa values is not an explanation.) (CH3)3COH pka= 16.54CH3CH2CH2CH3 pka= 50
In SN2 reactions of haloalkanes, the order of reactivity is RI>RBr>RCl>RF. Alkyl iodides are considerably more reactive than alkyl fluorides, often by factors as great as 106. All 1-halo-2,4-dinitrobenzenes, however, react at approximately the same rate in nucleophilic aromatic substitutions. Account for this difference in relative reactivities.
Rank the species below in order of increasing nucleophilicity in protic solvent. I. H2O II. CH3S— III. CH3COO— IV. t-BuO— I, II, IV, III I, III, II, IV I, III, IV, II I, II, III, IV
Tributyltin hydride (Bu3SnH) is used synthetically to reduce alkyl halides, replacing a halogen atom with hydrogen. Free-radical initiators promote this reaction, and free-radical inhibitors are known to slow or stop it. Your job is todevelop a mechanism,

Illustrate the resonance effect of the methoxy group -OCH3, on the structure of the benzene ring. Draw all the oissuvke resonance forms of methoxybenzene, including the hybrid Based on the structures, explain how the presence of the -OCH3 group affects: (i) the reactivity of the benzene ring towards electrophilic attack (ii) the orientation or point of attack of an incoming electrophilic reagent on the benzene ring.
which one is more nucleophilic CH3CO2- or -OH? Does it have anything to do with resonance or bulkyness (sterically hindered)??
Tunicates are marine animals that are called "sea squirts" because when they are taken out of water, they tend to contract and expel seawater. Lepadiformine is a cytotoxic agent (toxic to cells) isolated from a marine tunicate. During a recent synthesis of lepadiformine, the investigators observed the formation of an interesting by-product (3) while treating diol 1 with a reagent similar in function to PBr3 (J. Org. Chem. 2012, 77, 3390–3400):

Step 2 of the iodination of benzene shows water acting as a base and removing a proton from the sigma complex. We did notconsider the possibility of water acting as a nucleophile and attacking the carbocation, as in an electrophilic addition to an alkene.Draw the reaction that would occur if water reacted as a nucleophile and added to the carbocation. Explain why this type ofaddition is rarely observed.
