प्रश्न
Give reason for the following:
The product formed during SN1 reaction is a racemic mixture.
Advertisements
उत्तर
During the SN1 mechanism, intermediate carbocation formed is sp2 hybridized and planar in nature. This allows the attack of nucleophiles from either side of the plane resulting in a racemic mixture.
