MULTIPLE CHOICE. Choose the one alternative that best completes the statement or answers the question 14) Which of the following alkyl halides is the least reactive in an SN2 reaction? Explain 14) A) CH3CH2Cl C1 B) CH3CCH2CH3 CH3 Cl O CH3CHCHCH3 CH3 CH3CHCH2CH3 D) CH2 Cl CH3CHCH2cl E) CH3 15) How does doubling the concentration of both the alkyl halide and the nucleophile affect the rate 15) of the following SN2 reaction? A) triples the rate B) no change C) rate is halved D) doubles the rate E) quadruples the rate

Explanation / Answer

14)

rate of SN2 reaction is

primary halide > secondary halide > tertiary halide

primary halide is compound where halide is attached to carbon which is attached to only one other carbon

secondary halide is compound where halide is attached to carbon which is attached to two other carbon

tertiary halide is compound where halide is attached to carbon which is attached to three other carbon

A is primary halide

B is tertiary halide

C is secondary halide

D is primary halide

E is primary halide

So, B will be slowest
