  20. Substrate - SN2 & SN1 Relative reactivity SN2 steric factors - reaction center neighbor. 2 x 106 4 x 105 500 <1 <1 1 12 1.2 x 106 SN1 electronic factors - carbocation stability. 1. Primary and methyl halides have less steric hindrance, thus only SN2. 2. Tertiary halides (also, allylic or benzylic) react via carbocation, thus SN1 exclusively. 3. 2o alkyl halides can react as SN1 or SN2, depending on nucleophile and solvent. Chapter 11 - Substitution & Elimination Reactions

  21. Attacking Nucleophile good (Underlined nucleophiles are also strong bases) moderate poor 1. SN2 involves substrate and nucleophile in the rate determining step (rds). Thus good nucleophile lowers the G‡ and therefore increases the reaction rate. 2. SN1 does not involve the nucleophile in the rate determining step. Thus nucleophile has no effect on the reaction rate. Chapter 11 - Substitution & Elimination Reactions

  23. Species with higher electronegativity have tightly held nonbonding electrons and therefore less reactive towards forming new bonds. Nucleophilicity Nucleophilicity Increase in size and polarizability. Chapter 11 - Substitution & Elimination Reactions

  24. pKa 38 15.5 15.74 4.76 3.45 -7 -8 -9 Leaving group strength of conjugate acid stability of anion Good Poor reactivity as a leaving group 1. Good leaving group increases rates of SN1 & SN2. 2. The 1st three are such poor leaving group, no substitutions are observed. Chapter 11 - Substitution & Elimination Reactions

  25. Solvents Protic solvents: “…those that contain -OH or -NH groups …worst solvents for SN2 reactions.” Aprotic solvents: “…have strong dipoles but don’t have -OH or -NH groups. Best for SN2 reactions.” Chapter 11 - Substitution & Elimination Reactions

  26. Protic Solvent Common Solvents polarity Dielectric Constant 6 acetic acid 34 methanol 80 1. Contain–OH group. 2. R is either CH3–, CH3CH2 –, or in general, CnH2n+1 . 3. Hydrogen bond with Nu, decreases its reactivity, hinders SN2 . 4. Electrostatic interaction stabilizes carbocation, facilitates SN1. Chapter 11 - Substitution & Elimination Reactions

  27. Aprotic Solvent Common Solvents Diethyl ether Acetone DMSO DMF HMPA Dichloromethane polarity Dielectric Constant 30 4 48 38 21 9 1. Does not contain–OH group. 2. DMSO, DMF, HMPA, & acetone are polar aprotic, remaining two are weakly polar aprotic. 3. Solvate but not H-bonding with Nu, thus good for SN2. Chapter 11 - Substitution & Elimination Reactions

  29. 2. If the concentration of ethanol is halved, how would it affect the rate of the reaction, 1. 3o alkyl halide, protic polar solvent, thus expect SN1. 3. Halve [CH3CH2OH] will have no effect on the rate . Chapter 11 - Substitution & Elimination Reactions

  30. 2. If the concentration of ethanol is halved, how would it affect the rate of the reaction, 1. 3o alkyl halide, aprotic polar solvent, most likely mechanism is SN1. 3. Halve [CH3CH2OH] will reduce the rate. 4. See next slide for more explanation... Chapter 11 - Substitution & Elimination Reactions

  31. The carbocation is reduced due to lower dielectric constant, thus slow down the reaction. The part of the reaction will not affect the rate of the reaction since it is after the slow step. Chapter 11 - Substitution & Elimination Reactions
