S_N1 reactions of the type,Nu^- + RL $\to$ Nu-R + L^-,are favored

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Tertiary substrates are more susceptible to nucleophilic substitution reactions than primary or secondary substrates due to the increased stability of the resulting carbocation intermediate. Therefore, reactions of this type are favored when tertiary substrates are used. The concentration of the nucleophile, strength of the base, or solvent polarity may also affect the reaction rate but are less directly related to the substrate structure.
