The correct increasing order of the reactivity of halides for S _ N 1 reaction is
Options
- Aaligned & CH ₃- CH ₂-X < ( CH ₃ )₂ CH -X < & CH ₂= CH - CH ₂-X < PhCH ₂-X aligned
- Baligned & ( CH ₃ )₂ CH -X < CH ₃- CH ₂-X < & CH ₂= CH - CH ₂-X < PhCH ₂-X aligned
- Caligned & PhCH ₂-X < ( CH ₃ )₂ CH -X < CH ₃- CH ₂-X < & CH ₂= CH - CH ₂-X aligned
- Daligned & CH ₂= CH - CH ₂-X < Ph - CH ₂-X < & ( CH ₃ )₂ CH -X < CH ₃- CH ₂-X aligned
Correct answer
A. aligned & CH ₃- CH ₂-X < ( CH ₃ )₂ CH -X < & CH ₂= CH - CH ₂-X < PhCH ₂-X aligned
Step-by-step solution
Reactivity of halides towards S _ N 1 mechanism is benzyl > allyl >3^ >2^ >1^ .
