If a reaction forms a carbocation a rearrangement is always a possibility. A rearrangement could simply be a hydrid shift or it could involve a ring expansion. In this video I will show you how an SN1 reaction (SN1 mechanism) can result in a ring expansion.

Failing organic chemistry? You do not have to fail Organic Chemistry!

This video is part of a series called How to be Successful in Organic Chemistry. In this series I go over numerous problems that a student could expect to see in there organic chemistry 1 course. Doing organic chemistry practice problems will make you more successful in organic chemistry and biochemistry.

I recommend that you download the problem from the link below and attempt the problem yourself and use this video to correct your work.
