Sec. Butyl chloride will undergo alkaline hydrolysis in the polar solvent by hydrolysis.

A

SN2

B

SN1

C

SN1 and SN2

D

None

Answer

None

Explanation

Solution

R−Br→R−O−N=OR - Br\overset{\quad\quad}{\rightarrow}R - O - N = O

Alkyl halide Alkyl nitrities

Alkyl nitrities are prepared by the action of alkyl halide and potassium nitrite only but in case of silver nitrite the main product is nitro alkane although a small amount of alky nitrite is also formed.

R−Br+KNO2⟶R−O−N=O+KBr\mathrm { R } - \mathrm { Br } + \mathrm { KNO } _ { 2 } \longrightarrow \mathrm { R } - \mathrm { O } - \mathrm { N } = \mathrm { O } + \mathrm { KBr }
