- Which compound is more reactive in an SN1 reaction? In each case, you can assume that both alkyl halides have the same stability.arrow_forwardRank the following compounds from most to least reactive in an SN2 reactionarrow_forwardRank these alkyl halides in order of increasing reactivity in an SN2 reactionarrow_forward
- Which of the products will react the fastest given an SN2 reaction ?arrow_forwardWhich undergoes SN1 reaction fastest? Br Br Br Brarrow_forwardWhich of the following pairs of compounds reacts with OH- ions faster in an SN2 reaction? Briefly explain. CH3Br or CH3I? 2-chloro-2-methylpropane or chloromethane?arrow_forward
- For SN1 Explain the order in which 1o (primary) alkyl halides reacted (fastest to slowest) and explain why. The 1o primary alkyl halides are: (see picture below) 1-chlorobutane 1-bromobutane 1-chloro-2butene benzylchloridearrow_forwardWhen hydroxide is used as the base to carry out an E2 reaction on a vinylic halide, the reaction usually needs to be heated significantly. As shown below, such a reaction involving the E isomer typically requires much higher temperatures. Why is this so? Z isomer E isomer Br КОН КОН 70 °C 200-230 °C Br Br 70% 67%arrow_forwardWhich SN1 reaction of each pair would you expect to take place more rapidly? Explain your answer.arrow_forward
- Given that an E2 reaction proceeds with anti periplanar stereochemistry, draw the products of each elimination. The alkyl halides in (a) and (b) are diastereomers of each other. How are the products of these two reactions related? Recall from Section 3.2A that C6H5 −is a phenyl group, a benzene ring bonded to another group.arrow_forwardGiven that an E2 reaction proceeds with anti periplanar stereochemistry, draw the products of each elimination.
