SNP+Elimination reactions Flashcards
the order of carbocation stability generally proceeds
tertiary > secondary > primary
polar protic vs polar aprotic
Polar protic solvents are the compounds containing OH or NH group that is able to form hydrogen bonds. Polar protic solvents are highly polar because of the OH or NH group. Polar aprotic solvents is a group solvents with medium range of polarity. They are polar because of polar bonds like C=O.

When you have a sp and sp2 electrophile,
You can not do any of SN/E (1-2) reaction
Leaving group formation for E2
Good leaving group- internal double bond
bad leaving group- external double bind
primary H is more likely to be extracted for bad leaving group E2 due to built up of charge from LG not wanting to leave
For SN2 its best to use a —— solvent because
polar aprotic solvent becaus it doesnt trap our nucleophile or H bond with it
SN1 perfer—- carbons
tertiary
For E2 reaction what is the conformation of the reactants?
Antiperiplanar
Same plane and 180 degree - LG and the H for the base
In E reactions, what H is leaving?
beta
Best leaving groups
Good nucleophile ranking
