  2. Racemization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racemization

    The racemization occurs by way of an intermediate enol form in which the former stereocenter becomes planar and hence achiral. [ 14 ] : 373 An incoming group can approach from either side of the plane, so there is an equal probability that protonation back to the chiral ketone will produce either an R or an S form, resulting in a racemate.

  3. SN1 reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SN1_reaction

    A typical S N 1 reaction, showing how racemisation occurs. However, an excess of one stereoisomer can be observed, as the leaving group can remain in proximity to the carbocation intermediate for a short time and block nucleophilic attack.

  5. Substitution reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Substitution_reaction

    Usually, both occur without preference. The result is racemization. The stability of a carbocation (C +) depends on how many other carbon atoms are bonded to it. This results in S N 1 reactions usually occurring on atoms with at least two carbons bonded to them. [2] A more detailed explanation of this can be found in the main SN1 reaction page.

  7. Nucleophilic substitution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleophilic_substitution

    Nucleophilic substitution via the S N 1 or S N 2 mechanism does not generally occur with vinyl or aryl halides or related compounds. Under certain conditions nucleophilic substitutions may occur, via other mechanisms such as those described in the nucleophilic aromatic substitution article.
