Alcohol forms ester with TsCl in which there is breaking of O-H bond. <img class="img-fluid question-image" alt="Solution" src="https://cdn.tardigrade.in/q/nta/c-qrjhoevjgpi5.png" /> Second step is a textS textN text2 reaction textI- as nucleophile

Q. Consider the statements for given reaction

$1.$ In the first step, there is breaking of $C - O$ bond

$2.$ The second step is $S_{N} 2$ reaction

$3.$ There is retention of configuration in the first step

$4.$ There is inversion of configuration in the second step

1, 2 and 3 are correct

2, 3 and 4 are correct

1, 3 and 4 are correct

1, 2, 3 and 4 are correct

Alcohol forms ester with TsCl in which there is breaking of $O - H$ bond.

Second step is a $S_{N} 2$ reaction $I^{-}$ as nucleophile
