To sum it up,SN1 and SN2 are two types of nucleophilic substitution reactions explained by takingSn1 and Sn2reaction examples. A nucleophile is defined as an electron-rich atom or molecule. It can be in the form of an anion (negatively charged ion) or in the form of a compound that ha...

Given that the first step in the SN1 reaction is the slow spontaneous heterolytic cleavage to form a substituted carbocation and a free halide, is it possible for rearrangements to occur when you would just put a suitable haloalkane in solution? See the attached reaction. After heterolytic cle...

A Violation of the Swain-Scott Principle, and Not SN1 versus SN2Reaction Mechanisms, Explains Why Carcinogenic Alkylating Agents Can Form Different Proport... Loechler EL (1994) A violation of the Swain-Scott principle, and not SN1 versus SN2 reaction mechanisms, explains why carcinogenic ...
the strength of the attacking nucleophile is important in SN2 mechanism, but it is hardly a contributing factor in SN1 because the carbocation intermediate is formed so easily, with reference to Hammond's Postulate. The stability of the carbocation (which translates to lower Ea to form the inter...
Re: Sn1/Sn2 «Reply #3 on:January 12, 2013, 01:22:31 AM » Just a point, the compounds do not know that they can form a stable carbocation Sn1 and Sn2 refer to the reaction kinetics and ultimately allow the suggestion of a mechanistic pathway. ...
