Allylic substitution in CH3CH=CH2 may be carried out by
Sulphuryl chloride, SO2Cl2
tert-butyl hypochlorite, Me3COCl
NBS
Chlorine at 350∘C
All the four reagents can cause allylic substitution.
The reactivity of compound Z with different halogens under appropriate conditions is given below The observed pattern of electrophilic substitution can be explain by
When ethyl chloride is added to Sodium tert-butoxide, ethyl tert-butyl ether is obtained as the major product (shown below): When the concentration of ethyl chloride is doubled, the reaction rate:
