Question

Which of the following species is a nucleophile? (A)  overset+ mathopN O2  (B)  ..CX2  (C)  nterdot nterdot oversetnterdot nterdot mathopN H2-  (D)  nterdot CH3

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Nucleophiles are electron donating species. Among the given, only .. overset.. mathopN H2- has a tendency to give lone pair of electrons, so it is a nucleophile.

Q. Which of the following species is a nucleophile?

$N + O_{2}$

$_{.}^{.} C X_{2}$

$_{\cdot}^{\cdot} N \cdot\cdot H_{2}^{-}$

$\cdot C H_{3}$

Nucleophiles are electron donating species. Among the given, only $_{.}^{.} N .. H_{2}^{-}$ has a tendency to give lone pair of electrons, so it is a nucleophile.
