Post-lab Questions 1. What is the difference between SN1 and SN2 reactions? Please list at least three different factors for each reaction type. Also provide an example for each type with detailed arrow-pushing mechanism. 2. Identify the nucleophile, electrophile, and leaving group in the reaction. 3. Ethanol is not usually a solvent used for SN2 reactions why not? Describe an undesirable side reaction that might occur using ethanol as a solvent that would not occur if THF was used as the solvent. 4. Why is it important to mix naphthol with sodium hydroxide before adding the electrophile? What happens during this time? 5. What is the better nucleophile - sodium naphthoxide or naphthol? Why? OH NaOH, ethanol 1-iodobutane
