SN1 SN2 E1 Series: Video 9
This video is the first of 3 Unimolecular Nucleophilic Substitution reaction tutorials.
This video breaks down the reaction, rate, and step by step mechanism for the SN1 reactions including a few simple examples to help you follow along.
Pay special attention to the key identifyers of an SN1 reaction to differentiate between E1/E2 and SN2
