Question

Hello! Just double checking the answers from my organic chemistry study guide. Please go ahead and answer ALL the questions you see below, if you can't answer all then PLEASE let someone else do them! High rating only given to ALL questions complete.

2. Consider the Ss1 reaction shown below and answer the following questions. H20 (CH3)3CBr(CH3)3COHHBr A. Write the rate law for the reaction. B. Identify the nucleophile, the electrophile, and the reaction solvent. C. State how each of the following factors would affect the rate of the reaction a. Increasing the concentration of the alkyl halide. b. Increasing the concentration of H20 c. Replacing H20 with NaOH. d. Changing the alkyl halide from a bromide to an iodide. e. Changing the alkyl halide to 1-bromopropane.

Answer 1

2. C. I. Increases since it is SN1 reaction, follows 1st order kinetics and unimolecular reaction. Rate depends only on alkyl halide.

Ii. No change in rate

Iii. No change, since rate depend s only on alkyl halide

IV. Increases since Iodide is good leaving group than Br

V. Decreases, since it is SN1, alkyl halide should be tertiary halide , 1-bromopropane is primary halide . Hence rate decreases.

13. NBS is a selective brominating reagent at allylic and benzylic position. Hence Allylic Bromination occured.
