What is What Are SN1 and SN2 Reactions about?

SN1 and SN2 reactions are two types of nucleophilic substitution mechanisms with distinct characteristics. SN1 is a unimolecular process involving a carbocation intermediate, typically occurring with tertiary substrates in polar protic solvents, resulting in racemic mixtures. In contrast, SN2 is a bimolecular, one-step process that favors primary substrates in polar aprotic solvents, leading to inversion of configuration at the reactive center.
