Question

2. Consider the Sw1 reaction between 2-bromo-2-methylpropane and methanol at 50 °C. НАС Br H2CH3 Сн,он 50 °C н, с осна HCCHE a. Which molecule (or ion) is serving as the nucleophile in this reaction? b. Which molecule (or ion) is serving as the electrophile in this reaction? C. Which molecule (or ion) is serving as the leaving group in this reaction? d. What is the rate law for this reaction? e. Draw the structure of the intermediate that is formed over the course of this reaction. f. Qualitatively (e. faster, slower, or no change), how would the overall rate change if the reaction were performed at room temperature (25 °C)? 8. Qualitatively (i.e. faster, slower, or no change), how would the overall rate change if the reaction were performed in the presence of one equivalent of AgNO,?
