The Finkelstein reaction is one-step reaction of this type. The acylation and alkylation Friedel-Crafts reactions are electrophilic aromatic reactions of this type.
The Finkelstein reaction is one-step reaction of this type. The acylation and alkylation Friedel-Crafts reactions are electrophilic aromatic reactions of this type. Substrates undergoing one reaction of this type pass through a trigonal bipyramidal transition state and undergo a Walden inversion of configuration. The reaction of hydroxide with iodomethane to yield methanol is an example of this type of reaction. These reactions, which often compete with elimination reactions, have a unimolecular version termed SN1 and a bimolecular version termed SN2. For 10 points, name this type of reaction in which one group in in a molecule is replaced by another.
