1. (a)** C4H9Cl has a number of structural isomers. Draw and name the structural formulas of an isomer of C4H9Cl that is: - (i)** a primary isomer (ii) a secondary isomer (iii) a tertiary isomer. 2. (b) (i)** Identify which of these isomers will react with aqueous sodium hydroxide almost exclusively by an SN1S_N1 mechanism. Explain the symbols in the term SN1S_N1 . - (ii)** Draw the mechanism for this reaction using curly arrows to represent the movement of electron pairs. 3. (c) (i)** Identify which of these isomers will react with aqueous sodium hydroxide almost exclusively by an SN2S_N2 mechanism. - (ii)** Draw the mechanism for this reaction using curly arrows to represent the movement of electron pairs. (b) (i)** Identify which of these isomers will react with aqueous sodium hydroxide almost exclusively by an SN1S_N1 mechanism. Explain the symbols in the term SN1S_N1 . - (ii)** Draw the mechanism for this reaction using curly arrows to represent the movement of electron pairs. (c) (i)** Identify which of these isomers will react with aqueous sodium hydroxide almost exclusively by an SN2S_N2 mechanism. - (ii)** Draw the mechanism for this reaction using curly arrows to represent the movement of electron pairs.
