Mechanism of SN1 reaction with example
Answers
Answer:
The hydrolysis of tert-butyl bromide with aqueous NaOH solution is an example of SN1 reaction. The rate of the reaction depends on the concentration of tert butyl bromide but it is independent of the concentration of NaOH. Hence, the rate determining step only involves tert-butyl bromide.
SN¹reaction corresponds to unimolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction. The order of reaction is one. The hydrolysis of tert-butyl bromide with aqueous NaOH solution is an example of SN¹reaction. The rate of the reaction depends on the concentration of tert butyl bromide but it is independent of the concentration of NaOH. Hence, the rate determining step only involves tert-butyl bromide. In SN¹ reaction, racemic mixture is obtained.
