| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Tertiary Alkyl Halides | Strong base (like alkoxide) E2 reaction |
| Tertiary Alkyl Halides | Weak nucleophile (like water) SN1 reaction (E1 is minor unless highly substituted alkene forms) |
| Tertiary Alkyl Halides | SN2 possibility SN2 not possible with tertiary halide |
| Secondary Alkyl Halides | Strong base (like alkoxide) E2 reaction |
| Secondary Alkyl Halides | Strong nucleophile (like sodium azide) SN2 reaction |
| Secondary Alkyl Halides | Weak nucleophile (like water) SN1 reaction (E1 minor) |
| Primary Alkyl Halides | Strong nucleophile or strong base (like sodium azide or alkoxide) SN2 reaction (E2 less likely) |
| Methyl Halides | Strong nucleophile or strong base (like sodium azide or alkoxide) SN2 reaction |
| Tertiary Alcohols | H₂SO₄ E1 reaction |
| Tertiary Alcohols | HX SN1 reaction |
| Secondary Alcohols | H₂SO₄ E1 reaction |
| Secondary Alcohols | HX SN1 reaction (may proceed SN2 in select cases) |
| Primary Alcohols | H₂SO₄ Pseudo-E1 via rearrangement to form carbocation (except ethanol) |
| Primary Alcohols | HX SN2 reaction (SN1 via rearrangement less likely) |
| Ethanol | H₂SO₄ E2 reaction |
| Ethanol | HX SN2 reaction |
| Methanol | HX SN2 reaction only (no elimination possible only one carbon atom) |
