Why does the solvent choice make or break your substitution reaction? In this video, we dive deep into how polar protic and aprotic solvents dictate whether a reaction follows the SN1 or SN2 pathway.
What You’ll Learn:
The SN2 Preference: How polar aprotic solvents (like DMSO, DMF, or Acetone) "free up" the nucleophile by preventing strong solvation, dramatically increasing SN2 reaction rates.
The SN1 Preference: Why polar protic solvents (like water or methanol) stabilize the transition state and carbocation intermediate, speeding up SN1.
Solvation Energy: A look at how hydrogen bonding shells can "cage" a nucleophile and hinder its reactivity.
