The correct order of reactivity for reactions involving cleavage of C - Cl bond in following compounds is
Options
- AI II III
- BII III I
- CIII I II
- DIII II I
Correct answer
D. III II I
Step-by-step solution
Greater the number of electron withdrawing groups (- NO ₂ ) at o / p position, greater is the reactivity. Hence, 2,4,6-trinitrochlorobenzene has the highest reactivity.
