SN1 Reaction Mechanism - Full 1 Hour Video
🕑 Added 2021-02-25 13:55:22 +0000 UTCThis organic chemistry video tutorial provides a basic introduction into the SN1 reaction mechanism. It explains how to identify the major product and It includes example problems with carbocation rearrangements such as the hydride shift and methyl shift. It discusses the stereochemistry of the SN1 reaction such as the production of an unequal racemic mixture of stereoisomers due to the formation of an ion pair during the ionization of an alkyl halide. It includes many solvolysis reactions with H2O and CH3OH. It discusses substrate reactivity and leaving group stability.

can you do an examples of Bicyclic compounds in SN1 reactions, especially where rearrangement occurs.
