In S_(N)1 reaction of (S)-2 bromobutane with water Two subsitution products are formed one has the same relative configuration as the reactant and the other has the inverted configuration. This is in most S_(N)1 reactions, the recemic product is non-50:50 mixture i.e, recemization takes place the inverted product is more than 50% . the formation of different composition of the product is due to following stpes involved in S_(N) reactions. R-X "" to R^(+) X^(-) to R^(+) "" "solvent" X^(-) "" to R^(+)+X^(-) {:("Undissociated Molecule", "Intimate ion pair", "solvent-sperated ion pair", "dissociated ions"),(I,II,III,IV):} In the above reaction the non-50 :50 racemic mixturecontains more amount of
