\(\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{N}} 2\) reaction involving inversion of configuration takes place with an optically active compound \(Z\). The compound \(Z\) is
- A \(\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{X}\)
- B \(\left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right)_2 \mathrm{CHX}\)
- C \(\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{CH}\left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right) \mathrm{X}\)
- D \(\left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right)_3 \mathrm{CX}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{CH}\left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right) \mathrm{X}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In \(\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{N}} 2\) reaction the nucleophile attacks the electrophilic carbon of the electrophile. The bond between nucleophile and carbon forms at the same time that the bond between carbon and leaving group breaks.
