Question

Draw the highest energy transition state in the solvolysis of (ch3)3c-i in ch3oh

Answer 1

The highest energy transition state in the solvolysis of $(CH_{3} )_{3} CI$ in $CH_{3} OH$ is given as ,

The mechanism of solvolysis of tert-butyl iodide follow nucleophilic substitution reaction . The nucleophilc substitution reaction are two types one unimolecular and second bimolecular  nucleophilc substitution .

The mechanism of solvolysis of tert-butyl iodide follows unimolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction in which carbocation is the intermediate which as a transition state of it. The carbocation formed by  solvolysis of tert-butyl iodide is 3° carbocation or tertiary carbocation which is most stable. The methanol as neutral nucleophile and oxygen of methanol  attack at carbocation intermediate.

Therefore , the highest energy transition state in the solvolysis of $(CH_{3} )_{3} CI$ in $CH_{3} OH$ is given .
