Structure of the Haloalkane
SN1 reactions
Governed by electronic factors, namely the
relative stabilities of carbocation intermediates.
Relative rates: 3 > 2 > 1 > methyl
SN2 reactions
Governed by steric factors, namely the relative
ease of approach of the nucleophile to the site of
reaction.
Relative rates: methyl > 1 > 2 > 3

Structure of the Haloalkane
Steric factors
Compare access to the reaction center in
bromoethane and 2-bromo-2-methylpropane
(tert-butyl chloride).
