Which of the following is not a nucleophile?
Options:
Answer:
D
Solution:
BCl3 is electron-deficient, having only six electrons on boron. Therefore, it acts as an electrophile (Lewis acid) by accepting a lone pair of electrons, rather than a nucleophile. I-, CH3NH2, and CH3SCH3 all possess lone pairs of electrons that they can donate. The correct answer is (D).
