A carbanion is an organic ion that has a negative charge on a carbon atom. A carbocation is an organic ion that has a positive charge on a carbon atom. What steps are involved in the mechanism of the reaction between aqueous sodium hydroxide and 2-bromo-2-methylbutane?
- Aheterolytic bond fission followed by an attack by an electrophile on a carbanion
- Bheterolytic bond fission followed by an attack by a nucleophile on a carbocation
- Chomolytic bond fission followed by an attack by an electrophile on a carbanion
- Dhomolytic bond fission followed by an attack by a nucleophile on a carbocation
