Question

SN1 reaction is a first order nucleophilic substitution, e.g.,

The concentration of nucleophile does not appear in the rate law expression:
Reaction rate = k[ RX]
In a multistep organic reaction, the rate-limiting step is the slowest step. Rate determining step is represented by the following energy level diagram:


A reaction energy level diagram for an S subscript N to the power of 1 end exponent end subscript reaction. The rate limiting step is spontaneous dissociation of an alkyl halide to give a carbocation intermediate

Select the correct statement(s) about the graph 2:

  1. first step is rate determining and it is endothermic    
  2. first step is rate determining and it is exothermic    
  3. second step is rate determining and it is exothermic    
  4. second step is rate determining and it is endothermic    

The correct answer is: second step is rate determining and it is exothermic

The removal of two atoms or groups, one generally hydrogen open parentheses H to the power of plus end exponent close parentheses and the other a leaving group open parentheses L to the power of minus end exponent close parentheses resulting in the formation of unsaturated compound is known as elimination reaction.

In E subscript 1 end subscript (elimination) reactions, the C minus L bond is broken heterolytic ally (in step 1) to form a carbocation (as in S subscript N to the power of 1 end exponent end subscript reaction) in which open parentheses L to the power of minus end exponent close) is lost (rate determining step). The carbocation (in step 2) loses a proton from the beta-carbon atom by a base (nucleophile) to form an alkene. E subscript 1 end subscript reaction is favoured in compounds in which the leaving group is at secondary open parentheses 2 to the power of ring operator end exponent close parentheses to the power of ´ end exponent or tertiary open parentheses 3 to the power of ring operator end exponent close parentheses position.

E subscript 2 end subscript reactions occur in one step through a transition state.

E subscript 2 end subscript reactions are most common in haloalkanes (particularly, 1 to the power of ring operator end exponent) and better the leaving group higher is the E subscript 1 end subscript reaction. In E subscript 2 end subscript reactions, both the leaving groups should be antiplanar.
