Using curved arrow notation, show the formation of reactive intermediates when the following covalent bonds undergo heterolutic cleavage. (a) CH_(3)-SCH_(3) (b) CH_(3)-CN (iii) CH_(3)-Cu

Answer»

SOLUTION :(a) ALTHOUGH both C and S have same ELECTRONEGATIVITY (2-5) but the cleavage of the C-S BOND occurs towards S ATOM because S being bigger in size than C can disperse the -ve charge more effectively.
