Second step of which of the following pair of reaction is same:

Correct answer: D. None of these

  • A. E1 + SN1
  • B. E2 + SN1
  • C. SN1 + SN2
  • D. None of these

Explanation

First step is same in SN1 and E2 i.e. ionization to form carbocation. While 2nd step is different in all SNI, SN2, E1 and E2. The correct option is D) None of these. There is no pair of reactions mentioned among the options where the second step is the same. The different types of substitution and elimination reactions have distinct mechanisms with different steps.

About Alkyl Halides

Alkyl halides are named and related to their carbon-halogen structure, polarity and reactivity. The key reactions are nucleophilic substitution by SN1 and SN2 mechanisms and elimination by E1 and E2 mechanisms, including how substrate structure, nucleophile, base, solvent and temperature influence substitution versus elimination.
