Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The electrophile reactant and nucleophile reactant in the given reaction has to be indicated.
Concept introduction:
Nucleophiles are the electron rich species and it can share at least a pair of electron. Nucleophiles have negative charge.
Electrophiles are electron deficient species; they look for a pair of electrons. An electrophile has a positive charge, a partial positive charge or an incomplete octet that can accept electron.
(b)
Interpretation:
The electrophile reactant and nucleophile reactant in the given reaction has to be indicated.
Concept introduction:
Nucleophiles are the electron rich species and it can share at least a pair of electron. Nucleophiles have negative charge.
Electrophiles are electron deficient species; they look for a pair of electrons. An electrophile has a positive charge, a partial positive charge or an incomplete octet that can accept electron.

- An S 2 reaction takes place where a nucleophile displaces a leaving group at a stereocentre. If the stereocentre in the reactant is (R), which of the following is true? A) The stereocentre in the product will become (S) B) The stereocentre in the product will stay (R) C) Not enough information is given to answer the question 14arrow_forwardWhen the molecule reacting with the electrophile is a strong nucleophile and a strong base, the substitution reaction is favoured when There is the least amount of crowding (steric hindrance) around the alpha carbon There is the most amount of crowding (steric hindrance) around the alpha carbon The leaving group is a strong basearrow_forwardElectrophilic aromatic substitution reactions require activating the nucleophile.
