Nucleophilic Substitution SN2
The solvent also plays an important role in determining which pathway the reaction will take, SN1 versus SN2. It may safely be assumed that a primary-substituted leaving group will follow an SN2 pathway in any case, since the formation of the corresponding unstable primary carbenium ion is disfavored. Reaction by the SN1 pathway is highly probable for compounds with tertiary substitution, since the corresponding tertiary carbenium ion is stabilized through hyperconjugation
