Question:
The mechanism of $S_{N}{ }^{1}$ reaction is given as :
A student writes general characteristics based on the given mechanism as :
(a) The reaction is favoured by weak nucleophiles
(b) $R^{\oplus}$ would be easily formed if the substituents are bulky
(c) The reaction is accompained by recemization
(d) The reaction is favoured by non-polar solvents.
Which observations are correct ?
Correct Option: , 2
Solution:
$\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{N}}^{1}$ favours
(a) The reaction is favoured by weak nucleophiles
(b) $\mathrm{R}^{\oplus}$ would be easily formed if the substituents are bulky
(c) The reaction is accompained by recemization
