New cards

carbon halogen bond

polarised due to halogen being more electronegative than carbon…halogen draws electron pair in the bond away from carbon nearer to itself and carbon becomes positive

New cards

primary halogenoalkane mechanisms (SN2)

steps in a nucelophilic substitution which determines the rate of reaction involves 2 reacting species

New cards

tertiary halogenoalkanes (SN1) mechanisms

steps in nucleophilic substitution which determines the rate of reaction and only involves the organic reactant

4
New cards

carbocation stability

primary are least stable and tertiary is most stable

5
New cards

secondary carbocations

make use of both SN1 and SN2 mechanisms

6
New cards

elimination reactions using NaOH in ethanol

alkene is formed

7
New cards

using aqueous NaOH in a nucleophilic substitution

an alcohol is formed
