Textbook Question
Textbook QuestionFurfuryl chloride can undergo substitution by both SN2 and SN1 mechanisms. Because it is a 1° alkyl halide, we expect SN2 but not SN1 reactions. 1. Draw a mechanism for the SN1 reaction shown below, paying careful attention to the structure of the intermediate. 2. How can this primary halide undergo SN1 reactions? Fufuryl chloride
