(c) When cyclohexyl bromide is treated with sodium ethoxide in ethanol, the major prod- uct is formed by this mechanism. (d) The substitution product obtained by solvolysis of tert-butyl bromide in ethanol arises. by this mechanism. (e) In ethanol that contains sodium ethoxide, tert-butyl bromide reacts mainly by this mechanism. (f) These reaction mechanisms represent concerted processes. (g) Reactions proceeding by these mechanisms are stereospecific. (h) These reaction mechanisms involve carbocation intermediates. (i) These reaction mechanisms are the ones most likely to have been involved when the products are found to have a different carbon skeleton from the substrate. (j) Alkyl iodides react faster than alkyl bromides in reactions that proceed by these mechanisms.

In an aqueous solution containing sodium bicarbonate, aniline reacts quickly withbromine to give 2,4,6-tribromoaniline. Nitration of aniline requires very strong conditions,however, and the yields (mostly m-nitroaniline) are poor. *(c) Although nitration of aniline is slow and gives mostly meta substitution, nitrationof acetanilide (PhNHCOCH3) goes quickly and gives mostly para substitution. Useresonance forms to explain this difference in reactivity.
