Question

Which of the following is the example of S_N2 reaction

(a) \(CH_3 Br + OH ^- \longrightarrow CH_3 OH + Br ^-\)

(b) \(CH_3 \underset {\underset {Br}{|}}{C} HCH_3 + OH ^- \longrightarrow CH_3 \underset {\underset {OH}{|}}{C}HCH_3 + Br ^-\)

(c) \(CH_3 - \underset{Br}{\underset{|}{\overset{CH_3}{\overset{|}C}}}-CH_3 + OH ^- \longrightarrow CH_3 - \underset{OH}{\underset{|}{\overset{CH_3}{\overset{|}C}}}-CH_3 + Br ^-\)

Answer 1

Correct option is (a) \(CH_3 Br + OH ^- \longrightarrow CH_3 OH + Br ^-\)
