IB Chemistry HL question
Why is Sn1 mechanism faster than Sn2 in nucleophilic substitution reactions of halogenoalkanes?
Tertiary halogenoalkanes react using Sn1. It involves the formation of a stable Carbocation
Primary halogenoalkanes react using Sn2. It involves the formation of an unstable transition state.
Secondary can react using either I think.
