Which of the following statements is correct for optically active alkyl halides, upon reaction with nucleophiles?

- A (a)
- B (b)
- C (c)
- D (d)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) (b)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
If an asymmetric carbon atom is not able to retain its spatial arrangement during a chemical reaction is known as inversion. Which occurs during \(\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{N}}\) 2reaction. The nucleophile attacks the \(\mathrm{C}-X\) bond of an alkyl halide by the backside and so the…
