For the following reactions

For the following reactions where, k _ s and k _ e , are respectively, the rate constants for substitution and

where,

For the following reactions where, k _ s and k _ e , are respectively, the rate constants for substitution and
ks{k}_{s} and ke{k}_{e} , are respectively, the rate constants for substitution and elimination, and μ=kske\mu = \dfrac{{k}_{s}}{{k}_{e}} , the correct option is ________

Options

  1. A{\mu}_{B} > {\mu}_{A}<em>and</em><em>and</em>{k}_{e}\left(A\right) > {k}_{e}\left(B\right)
  2. B{\mu}_{A} > {\mu}_{B}<em>and</em><em>and</em>{k}_{e}\left(B\right) > {k}_{e}\left(A\right)
  3. C{\mu}_{B} > {\mu}_{A}<em>and</em><em>and</em>{k}_{e}\left(B\right) > {k}_{e}\left(A\right)
  4. D{\mu}_{A} > {\mu}_{B}<em>and</em><em>and</em>{k}_{e}\left(A\right) > {k}_{e}\left(B\right)

Correct answer

B. {\mu}_{A} > {\mu}_{B}<em>and</em><em>and</em>{k}_{e}\left(B\right) > {k}_{e}\left(A\right)

Step-by-step solution

For the following reactions where, k _ s and k _ e , are respectively, the rate constants for substitution and

(B) with more steric crowding forms elimination product compared to substitution

Ke(B)>Ke(A)μB=Ks(B)Ke(A)<μA=Ks(A)Ke(A){\text{K}}_{\text{e}} ( \text{B} ) > {\text{K}}_{\text{e}} ( \text{A} ) {\mu}_{\text{B}} = \dfrac{{\text{K}}_{\text{s}} ( \text{B} )}{{\text{K}}_{\text{e}} ( \text{A} )} < {\mu}_{\text{A}} = \dfrac{{\text{K}}_{\text{s}} ( \text{A} )}{{\text{K}}_{\text{e}} ( \text{A} )}
