Identify the three products formed when 2-bromo-2-methylpropane is dissolved in a mixture of 80% ethanol and 20% water
The pKa of acetic acid in water is 4.76. What effect will a decrease in the polarity of the solvent have on the pKa? Why?
a. Explain why the reaction of an alkyl halide with ammonia gives a low yield of primary amine.
b. Explain why a much better yield of primary amine is obtained from the reaction of an alkyl halide with an azide ion (-N3), followed by catalytic hydrogenation. (Hint: An alkyl azide is not nucleophilic.)
