1
New cards

SN2

nucleophile attacks electrophilic carbon & leaving group leaves

<p>nucleophile attacks electrophilic carbon &amp; leaving group leaves</p>
2
New cards

Proton Transfer (P.T.)

  • e- rich species attacks H on e- poor species

  • bond between H & e- poor species breaks

<ul><li><p>e- rich species attacks H on e- poor species</p></li><li><p>bond between H &amp; e- poor species breaks</p></li></ul><p></p>
3
New cards

Coordination step

nucleophile attacks carbocation (lewis base attacks lewis acid)

<p>nucleophile attacks carbocation (lewis base attacks lewis acid)</p>
4
New cards

Heterolysis

exact opposite of a coordination step

<p>exact opposite of a coordination step</p>
5
New cards

Nucleophilic addition

  • nucleophile attacks polarized, electrophilic carbon

  • pi bond breaks

<ul><li><p>nucleophile attacks polarized, electrophilic carbon</p></li><li><p>pi bond breaks</p></li></ul><p></p>
6
New cards

Nucleophilic Elimination

  • electrons on negatively charged species in tetrahedral intermediate go back to carbon

  • leaving group leaves

<ul><li><p>electrons on negatively charged species in tetrahedral intermediate go back to carbon</p></li><li><p>leaving group leaves</p></li></ul><p></p>
7
New cards

E2

  • hydrogen & leaving group have to be anti- pari planar to each other

  • base attacks hydrogen on beta carbon

    • bond between hydrogen & beta carbon breaks and goes to bond between beta & alpha carbon

  • leaving group leaves

<ul><li><p>hydrogen &amp; leaving group have to be anti- pari planar to each other</p></li><li><p>base attacks hydrogen on beta carbon</p><ul><li><p>bond between hydrogen &amp; beta carbon breaks and goes to bond between beta &amp; alpha carbon</p></li></ul></li><li><p>leaving group leaves</p></li></ul><p></p>
8
New cards

Electrophile Elimination

  • base grabs hydrogen

  • hydro-carbon bond moves to create alkene

<ul><li><p>base grabs hydrogen</p></li><li><p>hydro-carbon bond moves to create alkene</p></li></ul><p></p>
9
New cards

Electrophilic Addition

pi bond grabs H & L.G. leaves

<p>pi bond grabs H &amp; L.G. leaves</p>
10
New cards

1,2 Hydride / 1,2 - Alkyl Shifts

  • take H attached t o B carbon & move it to create new carbocation

    • new carbocation has to be more stable

11
New cards

Sn1

heterolysis then coordination (Sn2 but in two steps)

12
New cards

E1

heterolysis then electrophile elimination (E2 but in two steps)
