SN2 reaction is a basic reaction type in organic chemistry. The letter S<sub>N</sub> stand for nulceophilic Substitution, the number 2 stands for bimolecular. This means that both reactions partners are involved in the reaction rate determining step. It also exists an S<sub>N</sub>1 reaction; here, only one reaction partner is involved in this step. | SN2 reaction is a basic reaction type in organic chemistry.
