The complete discription of SN1, SN2 and E1 E2 is given

Organic chemistry question: Regarding Sn1, Sn2, E1, E2
reactions, how or when do you know when the chemical(ex. Iodide) is
attacking the Halo(Bromine) from the back or the front? *Urgent*
Examples please.....
I feel the OCHEM PAIN!!! SN1, SN2, E1 AND E2
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hello there, finals are soon and I still have to understand how
these reactions work :(. I get confused by the Polar protic
solvent, polar aprotic solvent, strong small base and strong bulky
base :(. It'd be amazinf if someone could clearly explain me this
concept that I have had so much trouble specially identifying
knowing what exactly a is a strong base vs weak base??
Thanks for your...
Question about SN1 and SN2 reactions. In my lab we prepared
1-bromobutane from 1-butanol (SN2) and 2-chloro-2-methylbutane from
2-methyl-2-butanol (SN1). I don't undetstand the following
questions:
1. Why did we heat the SN2 reaction but not the SN1
reaction?
2. What was the purpose of performing a simple distillation on
both reactions? What were you isolating your products from?
3. What was the purpose of washing both of oyur reaction
mixtures with brine (saturated sodium chloride)?
What role does the leaving group play on the rate of
SN1 versus SN2 reactions? (compare 1-bromo to 1 chloro, 2-bromo to
2-chloro etc).What role does the structure of the substrates play
on the rate of SN1 versus SN2 reactions (compare primary,secondary
and tertiary that may have the same leaving group)
where is the chiral carbon located?
Write equations for the reactions investigated. Label Sn1 or
Sn2.
