What is the stereochemical configuration of the product(s) from the following S_

Question

What is the stereochemical configuration of the product(s) from the following S_N2 reaction? R S a 50:50 mixture of R and S enantiomers neither R or S, since the product is achiral If the following alkyl iodide were to undergo a substitution reaction with methanol, CH_3OH, which statement best describes the product(s)? the products would be racemic the product would only have inverted stereochemistry the product would only have retained stereochemistry the product(s) would be achiral Which of the following factors has no effect on the rate of S_N1 reaction the nature of the alkyl halide the nature of the leaving group the concentration of the alkyl halide the concentration of the nucleophile the value of the rate constant

Explanation / Answer

11) option A is correct (SN2 reaction forms the product with the inversion of configuration at chiral center.)

12) option A is correct (Reaction of secondary alkyl halide with a weak base underogoes Sn1 mechanism and produces racemic mixture of products.)

13) option D is correct (rate of Sn1 reaction depends only on the concentration of alkyl haldie and it does not depends on concentration of nucleophile.)
