Concept introduction:
Carbocation: carbon atom bears positive charged species with three bonds is called Carbocation and it plays vital intermediate in
Carbocation’s are classified in to three types as primary, secondary and tertiary depending on the number of carbon atoms which is attached to the ionized carbon.
Tertiary carbocation is more stable than secondary carbocation, secondary carbocation is more stable than the primary carbocation as shown below.
Leaving group: it is a fragment that leaves substrate with a pair of electrons via heterolytic bond cleavage.
Nucleophile: donates pair of electrons to positively charged substrate resulting in the formation of
Proton Transfer: It is defined as removal of
