What is the product of the reaction of bromoethane with each of the following nucleophiles?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The products of the reactions are given below,

Step by step solution

01

Definition of SN2 reaction

SN2 reaction is a nucleophilic substitution reaction where the Nucleophilic attack and bond breaking between carbon and electronegative group happens simultaneously through a 5 coordinated transition state. In this reaction, the rate equation is second order having both the concentration of nucleophile and alkyl bromide.

02

Mechanism of SN2 reaction

The mechanism of SN2 reaction is given below on a hypothetical reaction.

OH- =nucleophile

03

Product of the reactions

The SN2 reaction occurs between bromoethane and all the nucleophiles given above. All of them formed the products, maintaining the above reaction mechanism. The products are given below.
