Draw the SN2 mechanism of the reaction between (S) - 2 - bromobutane and iodide

Question

Draw the SN2 mechanism of the reaction between (S) - 2 - bromobutane and iodide ion. show lone pairs, electron pushing arrows, 3-D view to reflect appropriate stereochemistry, reactants, transition states, and products. Name the product. Draw and completely label a reaction energy diagram corresponding to the mechanism you have drawn. Draw the SN1 mechanism of the reaction between (R)-3-bromo-3-methylhexane and ethanol. Show tone pairs, electron pushing arrows, 3-D view to reflect appropriate stereochemistry, reactants, intermediates, and products. You do not have to show transition states. Name the product. Draw and completely label a reaction energy diagram corresponding to the mechanism you have drawn.

Explanation / Answer

f. drawn below is the mechanism for the Sn2 reaction. Inversion of configuration is seen here.

g. drawn below is the detailed mechanism for the given Sn1 reaction. We get racemic product.
