Question
Chapter 9, Problem 63P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Reason for acetone increasing the yield of alkyl iodide in the reaction of alkyl chloride with potassium iodide has to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Aprotic solvent are polar solvent molecules which do not have hydrogen bonded to oxygen to nitrogen.
The stronger base is always a better nucleophile in an aprotic solvent.
