Q. 35 Which of the following statements are correct about the mechanism of
this reaction?
(a) A carbocation will be formed as an intermediate in the reaction
(b) OH will attach the substrate (ji) from one side and Cl will leave it
simultaneously from other side
(c) An unstable intermediate will be formed in which OH and Cl will be attached
by weak bonds
(d) Reaction proceeds through mechanism
(a, d)
The secondary alkyl halide in involved in above type nucleophilic substitution reaction This 2° alkyl halide have bulky group thats why it follow mechanism rather than mechanism. Here stable carbocation will be formed as an intermediate which is further attacked by HO- nucleophile in 2nd step.
