Which among the following statements is NOT correct about \(\mathrm{SN}^2\) reaction mechanism?
- A Nucleophile attacks the atom from the side opposite to halogen.
- B Rate of reaction is dependent on the concentration of nucleophile.
- C Bond formation and bond breaking occurs simultaneously.
- D \(\mathrm{SN}^2\) mechanism is observed in tertiary alkyl halides.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(\mathrm{SN}^2\) mechanism is observed in tertiary alkyl halides.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\mathrm{SN}^2\) mechanism is observed in primary (least steric) alkyl halides. Thus, option D is incorrect.
