Summary of Substitution/Elimination Features SN2: Stereochemistry: 100% inversion Substrate: CH3 > 1° > 2° >> 3° Nucleophile: Need strong nucleophile, usually anionic (see below) Leaving group: X– or –OTos Solvent: Polar aprotic (DMF, DMSO, HMPA, CH3CN) SN1: Stereochemistry: racemization Substrate: 3° > 2° >> 1°. Allylic or benzylic work, even if 1° Nucleophile: generally weak (H2O, ROH, HX) Leaving group: X– or –OTos. OH can be a good leaving group under acidic conditions Solvent: Polar protic E2: Stereochemistry: C-H and C-X bonds must be anti Substrate: 1°, 2°, or 3°. For 1° need hindered base Base: Need strong base (NaOR, NaNR2) Leaving group: X– or –OTos Solvent: Polar protic or aprotic E1: Stereochemistry: mixture of E and Z Substrate: 3° > 2° >> 1°. Allylic or benzylic work, even if 1° Base: generally weak (H2O, ROH, H2SO4) Leaving group: X– or –OTos. OH can be a good leaving group under acidic conditions Solvent: Polar protic Nucleophiles (counterion can be Li or K; R = any carbon group): Strong and basic nucleophiles: NaOH, NaOR, NaNH2, NaNR2, NaCCR Strong and non-basic nucleophiles: NaSH, NaSR, NaCN, NaN3, NaO2CR, NH3, NR3, X– Weak and non-basic nucleophiles: H2O, ROH, RCO2H SN1, SN2, E1, E2 Decision Flow Chart Yes Is the nucleophile/base neutral or acidic (H2O, ROH, RCO2H, H2SO4)? Is the alkyl halide secondary? Is the nucleophile an anion? Is the substrate an alcohol and the reagent H2SO4? Is the alkyl halide tertiary? Is the reagent a base? Is the alkyl halide primary? Is it benzylic or allylic? Is the nucleophile a hindered, strong base (tert-butoxide, LDA)? No E2 Yes SN2 No Yes No SN1 or E1. SN1 favored unless an alcohol with H2SO4, then E1. Yes No Yes SN2 Is the nucleophile a strong base (NaOR, NaNR2, NaCCR)? Yes E2 Yes No No SN1 No E1 Yes No No Yes E2 Yes
