• Alkyl halide (R Br) has chiral centre and by Sy reaction we
expect the product (alcohol) as to be chiral or mixture of
optically active d, 1(+) isomers due to inversion. But we get
optically inactive achiral alcohol as the major product. This
indicates that
(a) reaction is Sp1 which result in the formation of
CH,
carbocation CH, CHCHCH;
(b) there is 1,2-hydride shift leading to isomerisation to
CH,
the more stable 3° carbocation CH, CCH CH3
(c) nucleophile is attached to 3° carbon (having two
identical methyl groups and the alcohol is thus a chiral)
(d) All of the above
