In this problem, we're looking at s &2 reactions, and we're looking at reactivity.
00:08
So the first thing we might make note of is that primary alkaliads are the most reactive.
00:16
They're faster than a secondary, and that's faster than a tertiary, which tertiary really won't even happen.
00:27
And we just had a methyl group here that would go even faster than primary.
00:33
So this can help us when looking at structures to tell what's most reactive.
00:39
So when we say primary, that means the carbon that our halogen is attached to is attached to one other carbon.
00:48
If it's secondary, there's two carbons.
00:51
And if it's tertiary, there's three carbons.
00:55
So let's keep this in mind as we look at our structures...
