The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem regarding the reactions of the compound CD₂=CH-CH₂Br with SN1 and SN2 mechanisms, we will analyze each reaction step by step. ### Step 1: Understand the Structure of the Compound The given compound is CD₂=CH-CH₂Br. Here, we have a bromine atom (Br) attached to a carbon atom that is part of a double bond. ### Step 2: Analyze the SN1 Reaction 1. **SN1 Mechanism Overview**: The SN1 reaction involves two steps: - **Step 1**: The leaving group (Br) departs, forming a carbocation. - **Step 2**: A nucleophile attacks the carbocation. 2. **Formation of Carbocation**: When Br leaves, we form a carbocation. The stability of the carbocation is crucial. In this case, we can have resonance stabilization due to the adjacent double bond. The carbocation formed will be: - CD₂=CH-CH₂⁺ (with a positive charge on the CH₂ adjacent to the double bond). 3. **Possible Products**: The nucleophile can attack the carbocation at two different positions: - Attack at the carbon with the positive charge (leading to one product). - Attack at the carbon adjacent to the double bond (leading to a different product). Thus, in the SN1 reaction, we can expect to form **two products** due to the different positions where the nucleophile can attack. ### Step 3: Analyze the SN2 Reaction 1. **SN2 Mechanism Overview**: The SN2 reaction occurs in a single step where the nucleophile attacks the carbon atom bearing the leaving group (Br) simultaneously as Br leaves. 2. **Nucleophile Attack**: The nucleophile will attack the carbon that is attached to Br: - This results in the formation of a single product where the nucleophile replaces Br. Thus, in the SN2 reaction, we can expect to form **only one product** since the nucleophile can only attack the carbon attached to Br. ### Conclusion - In the SN1 reaction, we have **two products** due to the possibility of nucleophile attack at two different positions. - In the SN2 reaction, we have **one product** since the nucleophile can only attack one position. ### Final Answer The correct statement is that there are **two products in SN1** and **one product in SN2**. ---
