Write a structural formula for the principal organic product formed in the reaction of methyl bromide with each of the following compounds:
(a) NaOH (sodium hydroxide)
(b) KOCH2CH3 (potassium ethoxide)
(c) (sodium benzoate)
(d) LiN3 (lithium azide)
(e) KCN (potassium cyanide)
(f) NaSH (sodium hydrogen sulfide)
(g) NaI (sodium iodide)
Sample Solution (a) The nucleophile in sodium hydroxide is the negatively charged hydroxide ion. The reaction that occurs is nucleophilic substitution of bromide by hydroxide. The product is methyl alcohol.
We need at least 10 more requests to produce the solution.
