Intro to Substitution Reactions - Crash Course Organic Chemistry
Substitution reactions can have really powerful effects, both good and bad, in our bodies. You might remember substitution reactions as displacement reactions from general chemistry, but (you guessed it!) in organic chemistry they’re a...

Substitution Reactions - SN1 and SN2 Mechanisms - Crash Course Organic Chemistry
We’ve already learned a bit about substitution reactions in organic chemistry and the two different paths they can follow: SN1 and SN2. In order to better predict the products of a substitution reaction and understand how they work, we...

Solvent Effects on Sn1 and Sn2 Reactions
Sal reviews the Sn1 and Sn2 reactions with comparable reactants. He discusses which electrons are lost or gained and the conditions that make one or the other process favorable.

Khan Academy: Sn1 vs Sn2: Solvent Effects on Sn1 and Sn2 Reactions
Reviews SN1 and SN2 reactions and compares how they are affected by different solvents.

Khan Academy: Sn1/sn2/e1/e2: Comparing E2 E1 Sn2 Sn1 Reactions
Looks at what type of reaction might occur if we have Bromocyclopentane dissolved in Dimethylformamide (DMF), with Methoxide ion in the solution. It could be an E2, E1, SN2, or SN1 reaction, and we look for clues to see which type is...

Khan Academy: Sn1/sn2/e1/e2: E2 E1 Sn2 Sn1 Reactions Example 2
A second example that looks at what type of reaction we might have - E2, E1, SN2, or SN1 - given certain ingredients. [3:06]
