Purpose of the problem
Revision of the factors affecting reactivity in a series of SN2-reactive molecules.
Suggested solution
None of these compounds has structural features necessary to promote SN1 (not even the third: notice that the bromine is attached to a primary carbon, even though there is a tert-butyl group in the molecule), so we need to think about SN2 reactivity only. In general, steric hindrance slows down SN2 reactions, so we can start by saying that methyl bromide > n-butyl bromide > cyclohexyl bromide. But how do the other two fit into the scale? An adjacent carbonyl group accelerates SN2 reactions enormously, so the ketone will react even faster than methyl bromide. On the other hand, a bulky tert-butyl group adjacent to a reaction centre leads to very slow substitution, so this compound (‘neopentyl bromide’) goes at the bottom of the scale.

Purpose of the problem
Simple example of the two important mechanisms of chapter 15: SN1 and SN2.
Suggested solution
NaOH (pKa of water about 16) removes the proton from PhSH (pKa about 7) rapidly as this is a proton transfer between electronegative atoms. Clearly the methyl group must be transferred from O to S and this must be an SN2 reaction.

The first reagent in the second reaction resembles the reagent in the first reaction but it is the free sulfonic acid and not the ester. The ether product must come from the displacement of OH from one molecule of t-BuOH by the OH group of the other and this can only be an SN1 reaction. The OH group leaves as H2O after being protonated by the sulfonic acid.

Purpose of the problem
Revision of stereochemistry from chapter 14 and practice at applying it to substitution reactions.
Suggested solution
The starting material in the first reaction has a plane of symmetry so it is achiral: the stereochemistry shows only which diastereoisomer we have. Attack by the amine nucleophile at either end of the epoxide (the two ends are the same) must take place from underneath for inversion to occur. The product is a single diastereoisomer but cannot, of course, be a single enantiomer so it doesn’t matter which enantiomer you have drawn. The stereochemistry of the Ph group cannot change—it is just a spectator.

The starting material for the second reaction is also achiral as it too has a plane of symmetry. The stereochemistry merely shows that the two OTs groups are on the same side of the molecule as drawn. Displacement with sulfur will occur with inversion and it is wise to redraw the intermediate before the cyclization. This ‘inverts’ the chiral centre so that we can see that the stereochemistry of the product has the methyl groups cis. There are various ways to draw this.
