The structure of the alkyl group, the leaving group, and solvent polarity influence the carbon-oxygen bond formation step in a way consistent with an SN2 displacement on carbon.
“Furthermore, it has been observed that the structure of the alkyl group attached to the halogen, the nature of the leaving group, and the polarity of the solvent exert influence on the course of the reaction in the carbon–oxygen bond formation step that is consistent with a mechanism involving an SN2 displacement on the carbon; therefore, it follows that the initial reaction of the superoxide with”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
