In an `SN_(1)` reation on chiral centers there is .

A

`100%` retention

B

`100%` inversion

C

`100%` recemization

D

inversion more than retention leading to partial racemization .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`SN_(1)` reations gives racemic mixture with slight predominance of that isomer which corresponds to inversion because `SN_(1)` also depens upon the degree of shielding of the front side of the reacting carbon .

Number of chiral center of the given compound:-

R,S-configuration is a useful tool for determination of enantiomers, diasteromers and homomers. If configuration of all chiral centers are opposite then structures are enantiomers, if all chiral centers have same configuration then they are homomers and if some have same confguration and some have opposite configuration then they are diastereomers. Among above structures find out enantiomeric structures:
