    Strawberry growers have used large quantities of methyl bromide (b.p. \(4^{\circ}C\)) to sterilize the soil before planting their crops. Like some of the freons, methyl bromide can diffuse up into the stratosphere, where it damages the protective ozone layer. Agricultural chemists have suggested using methyl iodide (b.p. \(43^{\circ}C\)) as a replacement for methyl bromide. Why is methyl iodide likely to be more toxic to agricultural pests (and people) than methyl bromide? Why is methyl iodide less likely to reach the stratosphere than methyl bromide?

    A solution of pure (S)-2-iodobutane ([a] = +15.90) in acetone is allowed to react with radioactive iodide, 131I -, until 1.0% of the iodobutane contains radioactive iodine. The specific rotation of this recovered iodobutane is found to be +15.58. (a) Determine the percentages of (R)- and (S)-2-iodobutane in the product mixture. (b) What does this result suggest about the mechanism of the reaction of 2-iodobutane with iodide ion?

    (a) Optically active 2-bromobutane undergoes racemization on treatment with a solution of KBr. Give a mechanism for this racemization. (b) In contrast, optically active butan-2-ol does not racemize on treatment with a solution of KOH. Explain why a reaction like that in part (a) does not occur. (c) Optically active butan-2-ol racemizes in dilute acid. Propose a mechanism for this racemization.

    Because the SN1 reaction goes through a flat carbocation, we might expect an optically active starting material to give a completely racemized product. In most cases, however, SN1 reactions actually give more of the inversion product. In general, as the stability of the carbocation increases, the excess inversion product decreases. Extremely stable carbocations give completely racemic products. Explain these observations.

    Furfuryl chloride can undergo substitution by both \(S_N2\) and \(S_N1\) mechanisms. Because it is a \(1^{\circ}\) alkyl halide, we expect \(S_N2\) but not \(S_N1\) reactions. Draw a mechanism for the \(S_N1\) reaction shown below, paying careful attention to the structure of the intermediate. How can this primary halide undergo \(S_N1\) reactions?

    The reaction of an amine with an alkyl halide gives an ammonium salt. The rate of this \(S_N2\) reaction is sensitive to the polarity of the solvent. Draw an energy diagram for this reaction in a nonpolar solvent and another in a polar solvent. Consider the nature of the transition state, and explain why this reaction should be sensitive to the polarity of the solvent. Predict whether it will be faster or slower in a more polar solvent.
