Question
Chapter 17.12A, Problem 17.21P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Fluoride works as a leaving group in the given nucleophilic
Concept introduction:
Substitution reactions are the reactions in which there is a replacement of an atom or a
The substitution reaction in which an electron seeking electrophile attacks an electron rich centre by replacing another electrophile is known as electrophilic substitution reaction. The substitution reaction in which a nucleus seeking nucleophile attacks an electron deficient centre by replacing another nucleophile is known as nucleophilic substitution reaction.

Explain why quinuclidine is a much more reactive nucleophile than triethylamine, even though both compounds have N atoms surrounded by three R groups.
Explain why a methoxy group (CH3O) increases the rate of electrophilic aromatic substitution, but decreases the rate of
nucleophilic aromatic substitution.
Usually at the 2- or 3- position, Thiophene undergoes electrophilic aromatic substitution. Draw the intermediates and all resonance structures for the reaction at each position, and then decide what position should be more reactive depending on your intermediates.
