SN1 Reaction
25PRACTICE PROBLEM
Nucleophilic substitution reactions of alkyl halides are often facilitated by silver nitrate (AgNO3). When 4-chloro-2-methylpent-2-ene reacts with AgNO3 in methanol, the reaction yields two different ether products. Draw a mechanism that accounts for the formation of both ethers.
