2 In order to make the above reaction occur, a stronger base (such as sodium methoxide) must be used to drive the forward reaction. I O Na Works Well O 3 Na I Reactive Stonger Base Weaker Base Example: NaO N pk a = 9 2 SO 4 ighly Toxic Na N Sodium cyanide Toxic I N Acetonitrile Na I The above reaction will not occur unless hydrogen cyanide is converted into sodium cyanide using NaO. The product is acetonitrile, a common laboratory solvent. REVIEW: yes or no? Examples Ex #1) Will NOT proceed no NaO No tert-butyl bromide 2-omo-2-methyl propane O Na Tertiary halide Ex #2) NaO No O Na alide attached to a double bond

3 Ex #3) This one can work in principle 2-omobutane Na N 2 2 N Na Ex #4) The one belo does NOT work O, OR, NR 2 are never good leaving groups O No Na N 2 2 N NaO Acid/base rxn occurs O Na N 2 In this reaction, the N 2 species will pull off the most acidic proton (the one on the alcohol) to from an alkoxide instead of undergoing an reaction, S N 1 reactions - Substitution Nucleophilic Unimolecular - Rate depends on 1 concentration (concentration of the starting material) - Not concerted has a carbocation intermediate - Not stereospecific - Works if leaving group is tertiary (not primary, slow on secondary) Example: Tertiary alide -No possible, sterically crowded does work by S N 1 X 3º halide X = No Adding water drives equilibrium forward (Le hatelier's Principle) O O Rxn is reversible S N 1 occurs

4 Mechanism: The bromine group leaves with its electrons from the covalent bond, leaving behind a reactive carbocation intermediate arbocation intermediate arbocation Stability: Tertiary Secondary Primary Methyl ation 3 3 > > > 3 3 Most stable The 3 alkyl groups donate e - density into the positive charge Least stable (no S N 1) Mechanism of Nucleophilic Attack on arbocation Nu 50% % Nu = 2 O If attack is from the top O 3 3 Planar carbocation intermediate sp 2, bond angle 120 Due to the 50/50 chance of attcking from the top or bottom, the reaction is not stereospecific and stereochemistry is lost. O 3 3 sp 3, tetrahedral, bond angle 109 The result of an S N 1 mechanism is often a racemic mixture or mix of diastereomers

5 S N 1 and Examples: Ex #1) O Nal No Rxn Ex #2) O is never a good leaving group O 2 SO 4 l l eat O arbocation intermediate Mechanism: O O 2 O l l Ex #3)!! - NaO3 OMe Na Secondary Alkyl alide
