SN1, SN2, E1, E2 Reactions Mechanisms, Clues, and Solvent Effects in Organic Chemistry Questions with Complete Solutions |latest update SN1 reaction -*unimolecular nucleophilic substitution reactions: 2 steps 1. Leaving group leaves forming a positively charged carbocation (rate limiting step) *The rate of rxn depends only on the concentration of the substrate rate = k [R-L] R-L is the alkyl group containing the leaving group *Anything that accelerates the formation of the carbocation increase the rate of rxn 2. Nucleophile attacks the carbocation (unstabl
