    Experiment 13: Synthesis of 1- Bromobutane An SN2 Reaction Theory: One of the methods of preparing alkyl halides is via the nucleophilic substitution reactions of alcohols. Alcohols are inexpensive materials and easy to maintain. However‚ they are a poor leaving group the OH group is a problem in nucleophilic substitution‚ this problem is fixed by converting the alcohol into H2O. Objective: The objective of this lab is to observe the synthesis of 1-bromobutane in an SN2 reaction‚ to see how a primary

    Introduction.- Majority of the time‚ to prepare alkyl halides is via the nucleophilic substitution reactions of alcohols. SN2 reaction is the type of reaction used in this lab experiment. Our objective was to see how a primary alkyl halide reacted with an alcohol. We did a conversion of n-butanol to 1-bromobutane. Br- ions is the nucleophile for this reaction which is generated from an aqueous solution of NaBr. The catalyst that converted the OH functional group of butanol to a better leaving group

    Lab 7: SN1 and SN2 Reactions Discussion/Conclusion: In this experiment the purpose of the lab was to study the relationship of structure and reactivity in nucleophilic substitution reactions by using qualitative tests of reactivity. Before the experiment began‚ students were asked to predict whether the reagents would cause an SN1 mechanism‚ SN2 mechanism‚ or both. When predicting the outcome of SN1 and SN2 reactions‚ the nature of the carbon skeleton‚ nature of the solvent‚ and the nature of

    The Preparation of 1- Bromobutane Introduction... Aim : To prepare 1-Bromobutane. Background : The most common way of preparing alkyl halides‚ which are very useful intermediates in syntheses‚ is the replacement of the OH group of an alcohol by a halogen. This replacement is a nucleophilic substitution reaction‚ and alcohols do not undergo nucleophilic substitution reactions because hydroxide ison is strongly basic and a poor leaving group. However‚ alcohols readily undergo

    13: Synthesis of 1-Bromobutane An SN2 Reaction Experiment #13: Synthesis of 1-Bromobutane an SN2 Reaction Introduction: In order to synthesize 1-Bromobutane an alkyl halide must be present to undergo a nucleophilic substitution reaction of an alcohol. Since 1-butanol is a primary substrate it will undergo an SN2 reaction with sodium bromide in order to convert the alcohol group to water which is a better leaving group and will in the end produce 1-bromobutane. Experimentally
