3. Nucleophilic aromatic substitution (NAS) reactions have the opposite trend in terms of reaction rate when compared with
SN2 reaction rates. This is to say that aromatic fluorides undergo substitution the fastest under NAS conditions but the
slowest under SN2 conditions. Using your knowledge of the mechanisms of these reactions, explain why this is the case.
(Hint: It is important to consider the rate-determining step of each mechanism).
