(a)
Interpretation:
A mechanism to explain each product of the given reaction is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Substitution reaction involves the replacement of one
(b)
Interpretation:
An explanation for the elimination rate is slower, but the substitution rate is unchanged is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The
(c)
Interpretation:
The mechanism for the formation of each product under given conditions is to be stated and the rate of formation of each product is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
Substitution reaction involves the replacement of one functional group by another. In nucleophillic substitution reaction, the attack of nucleophille over positive charge or over the partially positively charged species occurs. This leads to the removal of weaker nucleophille.

- Many hunting dogs enjoy standing nose-to-nose with a skunk while barking furiously, oblivious to the skunk spray directed toward them. One moderately effective way of lessening the amount of odor is to wash the dog in a bath containing dilute hydrogen peroxide, sodium bicarbonate, and some mild dish detergent. Use chemical reactions to describe how this mixture helps to remove the skunk spray from the dog. The two major components of skunk oil are 3-methylbutane-1-thiol and but-2-ene-1-thiol.arrow_forwardConsider this reaction: Br CH;OH Br-Br H3CO The mechanism proceeds through a first cationic intermediate, intermediate 1. Nucleophilic attack leads to intermediate 2, which goes on to form the final product. In cases that involve a negatively charged nucleophile, the attack of the nucleophile leads directly to the product. Br + CH3OH Br Intermediate 1 Intermediate 2 (product) In a similar fashion, draw intermediate 1 and intermediate 2 (final product) for the following reaction. OH + Br2 + HBr Br racemic mixturearrow_forwardConsider the two energy diagrams given below. B Reaction progress Reaction progress Which of the following is correct with respect to these diagrams? O A could represent an E2 reaction B could represent an E1 reaction A could represent an E1cb reaction O A could represent and E1 reaction B could represent an E1cb reaction Energyarrow_forward

- 4. A CHEM 245 student wants to synthesize some ethylene glycol to use as antifreeze in his radiator this winter. He proposes the following reaction to his instructor, who quickly explains that this reaction won't work as proposed due to the student's choice of reagent. 1) NaH 2) H20 OH Но a) Why can't sodium hydride (NaH) be used as the nucleophile in the reaction above? b) Propose an alternate reagent that COULD be used with the ethylene oxide to successfully give the desired ethylene glycol product.arrow_forward7. The reaction of methoxide anion with bromoethane to yield the ether ethyl methyl ether and the bromide anon (Br-) is an excellent example of a general reaction type called Sy2 (substitution nucleophilic bimolecular): CH,0+ CH,СH-Br a CH3-0-CH,СH; + Br- a.
