Passage / Comprehension
As a way of summarizing consider the reaction of methyllithium a typical organometallic compound with bromoethane a typical halide.
Three different reactions can be predicted.
(I) Nucleophilic substitution (SN2) (organometallic coupling)
(II) Halogen metal exchange:
(III) Bimolecular elimination reaction.
In principle all three of these reaction can compete with one another. How to promote just one of them over the two.
What is incorrect to promote (II) reaction?
