- | + | SN2 reaction is a basic reaction type in organic chemistry. The letter S<sub>N</sub> stands for nulceophilic Substitution, the number 2 stands for bimolecular, with both reactions partners are involved in the reaction rate determining step. It also exists an S<sub>N</sub>1 reaction; here, only one reaction partner is involved in this step. On the other side, SN2 reactions are characterized by exchanging substituents. The substituent that leaves the molecule is called leaving group. | |

+ | Typically, alkanes with a substituent in primary position undergo S<sub>N</sub>2 reactions. In contrast to a S<sub>N</sub>1 reaction, no stable carbo cation can be formed, therefore, another way is taken. | ||
