•2. Preparing Alkyl Halides
� N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) selectively brominates allylic positions
� Requires light for activation
–Preparing Alkyl Halides from Alkenes: Allylic Bromination
•2. Preparing Alkyl Halides
–Allylic Stabilization
� More stable than typical alkyl radical by 40 kJ/mol (9 kcal/mol)
� Allylic radical is more stable than tertiary alkyl radical
•2. Preparing Alkyl Halides
–Stability of the Allyl Radical: Resonance Revisited
� Three electrons are delocalized over three carbons� single electron is dispersed
•2. Preparing Alkyl Halides
–Use of Allylic Bromination
� Allylic bromination with NBS creates an allylic bromide� Reaction of an allylic bromide with base produces a conjugated diene, useful
in synthesis of complex molecules
•4. Nucleophilic Substitution Reactions
� Walden� Inversion of configuration� Nucleophilic Substitution Reaction (Most common)� Remember: (+)/(-) signs do not indicate configurations
•4. Nucleophilic Substitution Reactions
� Mechanisms (SN2, SN1)� Nucleophile, Substrate, Leaving group
•5. The SN2 Reaction
� Nu attacks the substrate from a direction 180o away from the leaving group
� TS� Partially formed Nu-C bond� Partially broken C-X bond� Negative charge is shared� Negative charge is shared� Simultaneous bond making and breaking� Octet rule is not violated
� Umbrella inversion
•5. The SN2 Reaction
� Reaction rates depends on� concentrations of both Nu and Substrate� Bimolecular reaction (SN2)� SN2 reaction takes place in a single step when substrate and nucleophile
collide and react
– Probing the mechanism of SN2 Reactions
•5. The SN2 Reaction
� Complete inversion
– Stereochemistry of SN2 Reactions
Tetrahedral Carbon
Planar
Tetrahedral (Inverted)
•5. The SN2 Reaction
� Spatial accessibility (Bulkiness of substrate)� determines how easy an SN2 reaction will proceed
– Steric Effects in SN2 Reactions

•5. The SN2 Reaction
� Why?� Trajectory is blocked� Remember! 180o away from the leaving group!
– Vinylic halide & Aryl halide
•5. The SN2 Reaction
� Expelled with a negative charge� Stable anion is a good leaving group� I, Br, Cl� The most common leaving groups
– The Leaving Group in SN2 Reactions
•5. The SN2 Reaction
� If a group is very basic or very small, it is a bad leaving group.
� Alkyl fluorides, alcohols, ethers, and amines do not typically undergo SN2 reactions.
–Poor Leaving Groups
•5. The SN2 Reaction
– The Solvent
� Solvents that can donate hydrogen bonds (-OH or –NH) slow SN2 reactions by associating with reactants
� Energy is required to break interactions between reactant and solvent� Polar aprotic solvents (no NH, OH, SH) form weaker interactions with
substrate and permit faster reaction
