Discussion 1) a) Which alkyl chloride reacted fastest with sodium iodide in acetone: 1-chlorobutane, 2-chlorobutane or 2-chloro-2-methylpropane? b) Which alkyl chloride reacted slowest? c) Explain how the structure of the alkyl halide affects the rate of an SN2 reaction. d) Why doesn?t bromobenzene react? 2) a) Which halide reacted faster with sodium iodide in acetone: 1-bromobutane or 1-chlorobutane? b) Explain how the nature of the leaving group affects the rate of an SN2 reaction. c) Would 1-iodobutane react faster or slower than the other halides? Explain. 3) a) Which alkyl chloride reacted fastest with silver nitrate in ethanol: 1-chlorobutane, 2-chlorobutane or 2-chloro-2-methylpropane? b) Which alkyl chloride reacted slowest? c) Explain how the structure of the alkyl halide affects the rate of an SN1 reaction. d) Would you expect that the 1-chloro-2-butene would be faster than 1-chlorobutane and why?
