Question

a) Select 4 molecules that carry out SN1
b) Select 4 molecules that carry out SN2
c) Select 4 molecules that have resonance when forming carbocations with resonance. Write the mechanism
of reaction of one of these molecules when reacting with CH3OH.
d) Write the names of 2 molecules that carry out a transposition of hydrogen by means of a SN1.
e) Write the names of a molecule that carry out a methyl transposition by means of a SN1.
Write the reaction mechanism of the selected molecule when reacting with NaCN.
f) Sort the molecules F, H, P and T, in increasing order (from least to greatest) of reactivity in a SN1.

C Bu Bt Br GB Bt Br OCH3 Bt Cl Bt Bt Br NO2

Explanation / Answer

4 molecules that carry out SN2 mechanism: A , B , M , G

4 molecules that carry out SN1 mechanism: H, N,T( tertiary halides do not undergo sn2 because of steric hinderance. ) P
