Kinetics – study of the effect of changes in concentration on rates of reactions.
CH3—Br + NaOH CH3—OH + NaBr
rate = k [ CH3-Br ] [ OH- ]
Tells us that both CH3-Br and OH- are involved in the rate determining step of the mechanism. “bimolecular”
![Page 21: Alkyl Halides R-X (X = F, Cl, Br, I) Classification of alkyl halides according to the class of the carbon that the halogen is attached to. RCH 2 -XR 2.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d305503460f94a09541/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Relative rates of R—X
R-I > R-Br > R-Cl
“element effect” C—X bond is broken in the rate determining step of the mechanism.

SN2 100% backside attack by the nucleophile
Evidence: stereochemistry = 100% inversion of configuration
Reasonable?
1) incoming nucleophile and negatively charged leaving group are as far apart as they can get.
2) there is more room on the backside of the carbon for the incoming nucleophile to begin to bond to the carbon.
![Page 24: Alkyl Halides R-X (X = F, Cl, Br, I) Classification of alkyl halides according to the class of the carbon that the halogen is attached to. RCH 2 -XR 2.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d305503460f94a09541/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Relative rates for alkyl halides in SN2:
CH3-X > 1o > 2o > 3o
37 : 1.0 : 0.2 : 0.0008
The transition state has five groups crowded around the carbon. If the substrate is CH3X then three of the the five groups are Hydrogens. If the alkyl halide is 3o then there are three bulky alkyl groups crowded around the carbon in the transition state. “Steric factors” explain the relative reactivity of alkyl halides in the SN2 mechanism.

The rate of this reaction depends on only the concentration of the alkyl halide. Therefore the nucleophile is not involved in the RDS here, cannot be SN2 mechanism!? “unimolecular”

Rearrangement of carbocations.
Carbocations can rearrange by 1,2-hydride or 1,2-methyl shifts:

[1,2-CH3] --C—C-- --C—C– + + CH3 CH3

Carbocations can rearrange by 1,2-hydride or 1,2-methyl shifts but only do so when the resultant carbocation is more stable.
