Reaction components

Question 1

SN2 products

Answer 1

Negatively charged atom, Nucleophile bonded to C, R, 2 H.

Question 2

SN2

Answer 2

Nucleophile attacks alkyl halide, causing loss of leaving group

Question 3

Good leaving groups

Answer 3

Conjugate bases of strong acids

Question 4

E2

Answer 4

Base removes proton from beta position of alkyl halide, causing loss of leaving group

Question 5

E2 products

Answer 5

Carbon double bonded to carbon, H bonded to base, atom with negative charge

Question 6

Strong nucleophiles

Answer 6

I, Br, Cl, HS, RS, HO, RO, CN (All -ly charged)

Question 7

Weak nucleophiles

Answer 7

H2O, ROH

Question 8

SN1 mechanism

Answer 8

Loss of leaving group gives carbocation intermediate, nucleophile attacks positive charge

Question 9

E1 products

Answer 9

Carbon with double bond and other single bonds, plus H bonded to +base

Question 9

E1 mechanism

Answer 9

Loss of leaving group gives carbocation intermediate, base removes beta proton to be able to afford product.
