4 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What does SN2 stand for?
Think about the number of molecules that participate in this reaction.
What is racemization?
Consider the outcome of SN1 reactions.
What mechanism results in inversion of configuration?
Remember the definition of Walden inversion.
In SN1 reactions, what is formed before the nucleophile reacts?
Think about the steps involved in the SN1 mechanism.
Consider an SN2 reaction between (S)-2-chlorobutane and a strong nucleophile. Predict the product and explain why you expect that outcome.
Identify how the stereochemistry of the starting material affects the product.
If an unknown tertiary alkyl halide undergoes an SN1 reaction with water, what will be the expected composition of the product mixture?
Consider that the carbocation structure allows for diverse attack angles by the incoming nucleophile.
