Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structure of principal organic products formed in the reaction of methyl bromide with each of the given organic compounds is to be written.

Concept Introduction:

The nucleophilic substitution reaction occurs when alkyl halide reacts with a strong base to yield alcohol as a principal product.

The leaving group in alkyl halide is replaced by nucleophile during the nucleophilic substitution reaction.

The negatively charged ion acts as nucleophile and methyl bromide act as electrophile.

In nucleophlicsunstitution reaction nucleophile attacks on the electrophile and formed principal organic compound.

Alkyl halide reacts with alkoxide and froms the ether with salt.
