Question

2 Explain substitution reaction with an example​

Answer 1

Answer:

Substitution reaction is also known as single displacement reaction or single replacement reaction is a chemical reaction during which one functional group is replaced by another functional group in a chemical compound. … Halogenation is a good example of a replacement reaction.

Answer 2

Answer:

Nucleophilic substitution reactions are an important class of reactions that allow the interconversion of functional groups. For alcohols, the range of substitution reactions possible can be increased by utilising the tosylates (R-OTs), an alternative method of converting the -OH to a better leaving group.
