Using the curved-arrow notation, show the formation of reactive intermediates when the following convalent bonds undergo heterolytic cleavage :
(a) `CH_3 - S - CH_3`
(b) `CH_3 - CN`
( c) `CH_3 - Cu` .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(a) Although both C and S have same electronegativity (2-5) but the cleavage of the C-S bond occurs towards S atom because S being bigger in size than C can disperse the -ve charge more effectively.

Using curved arrows rotation,show the formation of reactive intermediates when the following covalent bonds undergo heterolytic fission. (a) CH_(3)-CN (b) CH_(3)-Cu

Using curved-arrow notation, show the formation of reactive intermediates when convalent bonds in the following substance undergo heterolytic (polar) cleavage. (i) CH_(3)-SCH_(3) , (ii) CH_(3)-CN (iv) CH_(3)-Cu , (iv) Ag-I (v) H_(3)N^(+)-BF_(3) , (vi) Cu(-OH_(2))_(4)^(2+) Stratergy: Both bonding electrons remain with the more electronegative atom. If the bonding atom have same electronegetivities,, then the bonding electrons are taken away by the larger atom as it can sustain the negative charge more effectively.
