Choosing Between SN1 SN2 E1 E2 Reactions

preview_player
Показать описание


This video walks you through a four-part checklist that can be used to determine whether a given reaction will proceed via an SN1 SN2 E1 or E2 reaction mechanism and also which product molecules will be formed. You’ll learn how to analyze the degree of substitution of the starting reactant, the strength of the attacking nucleophile or base, the type of solvent, as well as the strength of the leaving group.

Additionally, you’ll learn about the notable exception of the big bulky base and why it forms the Hofmann product. You’ll also learn why the presence of heat in a reaction favors elimination, as explained by a reaction coordinate energy diagram. Finally, you’ll see me work through a few examples so that you can apply what you’ve learned to real test questions.

I have graduated almost 5 years ago now, and I still watch these videos. They're so good for keeping your fundamental ochem sharp!
