Question

http://www.chem.umass.edu/people/mcdaniel/chem269/experiments/Sn2/Sn2-Reaction-lab.pdf

5. Why is it important to fully cool the product in an ice bath prior to isolation by suction filtration? Why do you need to rinse your product with ice water instead of room temperature water? 6. Based on what you have learned in lecture, what would happen if you used 2- odo-2-methylpropane as your electrophile in this reaction? 7. Based on what you have learned in lecture, what would be the impact of changing the nucleophile to 1-ethyl-2-naphthoxide?

Explanation / Answer

5) because this product formed only in low temperature depend on product melting point.easilly filterated by suction pump and fastly filtered. This product formed finely at cooling conditionsans its crystalised and solified with ice water

6)2iodo 2methyl propane is secondary carbo cation so it is stable and formed stable product when compared to abow productsn2 reaction takes place its bulky electrophile some interactions present in it.

7)
