in a protic solvent, what is the trend of nucleophilic strength?

nucleophile strength increases as you go down

in an aprotic solvent, what is the trend of nucleophilic strength?

it increases as you go up

what is the trend of electronegativity?

up the column, to the right of the row

what is the trend of size?

down the column, the left of the row

what is the 4 question line up to determine which pathway to take SN1,SN2,E1 or E2?

1. Does the question say what your rxn is?


2. What is the positioning of the Leaving group?


3. Is the nuc/base strong or weak?


4. Is the nuc/base bigger or smaller than CH3CH2OH? - If its bigger, then its considered a base - if its smaller, then its a nuc

what are the exceptions in measuring whether a molecule is a nucleophile or base?

acetate, carbanions and sulfur nucleophiles

what is chemical formula for acetate?

CH3COOH

what is the chemical formula for a carbanion?

-CX3

how do I make sure that an E2 product comes out antiperiplanar?

you need to make sure the leaving group and H that your about to break off are facing 180 degrees away from each other, u may have to rotate the main bond, switching the placement of molecules

for a bulky base, will it go saitsev or Hoffman?

hoffman
