NEETChemistryHaloalkanes and Haloarenes
Haloarenes are less reactive than haloalkanes and haloalkanes. Explain.
Options
- AHaloarenes have stronger carbon-halogen bonds, making them less prone to nucleophilic attack.
- BHaloalkanes and haloalkenes have more electronegative halogen atoms, leading to increased reactivity.
- CHaloarenes are less reactive than haloalkanes and haloalkenes because of resonance stabilization and aromatici
- DHaloalkanes and haloalkenes have fewer resonance structures, making them more reactive.
Correct answer
C. Haloarenes are less reactive than haloalkanes and haloalkenes because of resonance stabilization and aromatici
Step-by-step solution
Correct Option is : (C) Haloarenes are less reactive than haloalkanes and haloalkenes because of resonance stabilization and aromaticity.
