Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Better leaving group in given molecule/ion has to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
Weaker the basicity of the group better is the leaving propensity. If the attacking atoms are different in size and the reaction is carried out in a protic solvent, stronger the bases are poorer nucleophiles as ion-dipole interactions between the ions and the solvent.
(b)
Interpretation:
Better leaving group in given molecule/ion has to be identified.
