7. Substitution Reactions

Give two syntheses for (CH₃)₂CH—O—CH₂CH₃, and explain which synthesis is better.

For each pair, choose the nucleophile that would react most quickly in an S_N2 reaction (assume H₂O is the solvent).

(a) F^- vs Br^-

For each pair, choose the nucleophile that would react most quickly in an S_N2 reaction (assume H₂O is the solvent).

(b)

For each pair, choose the nucleophile that would react most quickly in an S_N2 reaction (assume H₂O is the solvent).
