Alkylhalides have polar C-X bond and undergo nucleophilic substitution reactions. These give a variety of products with nucleophiles such as `-OH, -OR, -NH_(2), -CN, -NC, -NO_(2), -ONO, RCOO^(-)`, etc. They undergo mainly two types of nucleophilic substitution reactions, `S_(N)1` and `S_(N)2`. `S_(N)1` reactions are two steps reactions which proceed through the formation of carbocations while `S_(N)2` reactions are one step reaction which proceeds through the formation of transition state. The stability of carbocation and transition state determine the reactivity of alkyl halides.
Write the main products A and B in the following reaction.
`A overset(KNO_(2))larr CH_(3)CH_(2)Br overset(AgNO_(2))to B`.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the question, we need to analyze the reactions that occur when `CH3CH2Br` (ethyl bromide) is treated with `KNO2` and `AgNO2`. We will identify the main products A and B from these reactions. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Reactants**: The reactants are `CH3CH2Br` (ethyl bromide), `KNO2`, and `AgNO2`. 2. **Reaction with KNO2**: - When `CH3CH2Br` reacts with `KNO2`, the `K^+` ion is a spectator ion, while the `NO2^-` ion acts as a nucleophile. ...

Alkylhalides have polar C-X bond and undergo nucleophilic substitution reactions. These give a variety of products with nucleophiles such as -OH, -OR, -NH_(2), -CN, -NC, -NO_(2), -ONO, RCOO^(-) , etc. They undergo mainly two types of nucleophilic substitution reactions, S_(N)1 and S_(N)2 . S_(N)1 reactions are two steps reactions which proceed through the formation of carbocations while S_(N)2 reactions are one step reaction which proceeds through the formation of transition state. The stability of carbocation and transition state determine the reactivity of alkyl halides. Which out of S_(N)1 or S_(N)2 results into inversion of configuration?
