Which of the statements are correct about the above reaction? (i) (a) and (e) both are nucleophiles. (ii) In (c) carbon atom is sp3 hybridised. (iii) In (c) carbon atom is sp2 hybridised. (iv) (a) and (e) both are electrophiles.

Option (i) and (iii) are the answers.

Nucleophiles are HO and CF. The C atom is sp2 hybridised in (iii) due to the simultaneous creation of the C – OH bond and the breakdown of the C – Cl link. As a result, in the transition state, the C atom is fully linked to only three H atoms.
