Interpretation:
The mechanism for the formation of chiral glycol from 1,2-chlorhydrin including formal charges and movement of electrons is to be proposed.
Concept introduction:
Substitution reaction: A reaction in which one of the hydrogen atoms of a hydrocarbon, or a
Elimination reaction: A reaction in which two substituent groups are detached and a double bond is formed is called elimination reaction.
Addition reaction: It is the reaction in which unsaturated bonds are converted to saturated bonds by addition of molecules.
Nucleophilic substitution happens by two different mechanisms:
The
In the rate determining step, leaving group generates a carbocation intermediate.
Carbocation intermediated then undergoes a rapid reaction with nucleophile.
Forms a racemic mixture.
The
In the rate determining step, nucleophile approaches the carbon from the side directly opposite to the leaving group.
The
This back side attack of nucleophile leads to inversion of configuration.

A drug user responded to an ad placed by a DEA informant in a drug-culture magazine. He later flew fromColorado to Maryland, where he bought some 1-phenyl-2-propanone (P2P) from the informant. The police waited nearlya month for the suspect to synthesize something, then obtained a search warrant, and searched the residence. They foundthe unopened bottle of P2P; apparently, the suspect was not a good chemist and was unable to follow the instructions theinformant gave him. They also found pipes and bongs with residues of marijuana and cocaine, plus a bottle of methylamine hydrochloride, some muriatic acid (dilute HCl), zinc strips, flasks, and other equipment.(a) Assume you are consulting for the police.
