Question

what is number 8? What other reaction steps (besides the SnI sequence) are involved in this meet A. Protonation B. Deprotonation C. Elimination I). SN2 reaction E. Free radical propagation step. In the laboratory, you have converted 2-mcthyl-2-butanol to 2-chloro-2-methvl aqueous concentrated HC1. What other reaction steps (besides the SnI sequence) are involved in this met A.Protonation B. Deprotonation C. Elimination D. SN2 reaction E. Free radical propagation step "Reactivity in the SnI reaction usually increases in the following order: 2-Chloro-2-methlpropane

Explanation / Answer

answer is hydrigen in the molecule are not acidic enough for protic solvent .becacuse the lack of N-H or O-H BONDS BONDS

These solvents have moderately higher dielectric constants than the nonpolar solvents (between 5 and 20). Since they have intermediate polarity they are good “general purpose” solvents for a wide range of reactions. They are “aprotic” because they lack O-H or N-H bonds. For our purposes they don’t participate in reactions: they serve only as the medium.
