What happens when?
methyl Bromide is treated with sodium in the presence of dry ether.
Toluene reacts with bromide in the presence of light to give benzyl bromide, while in presence of FeBr3 it givesp-bromo toluene. Give explanation for the above observation.
Arrange the following compounds in increasing order of SN1 , respectively.
ClCH2=CHCH2CH3, CH3(Cl)=CHCH2CH3, CH3 = CHCH2 CH2Cl, CH3CH = CH. CHCl CH3
Arrange the following compounds in increasing order of SN1 , respectively.
CH3CH2Br, CH2 = CHCH(Br)CH3, CH3CH(Br) CH3
CH2 = CH.CH(Br) CH3 > CH3CH(Br)CHCH3 >CH3CH2(Br)
(The reason is that primary halide is less reactive than other halide such as secondary and tertiary).
