JEE MAIN - Chemistry (2019 - 9th April Evening Slot - No. 17)

Increasing order of reactivity of the following compounds for SN1 substitution is:
(A) < (B) < (D) < (C)
(B) < (C) < (D) < (A)
(B) < (A) < (D) < (C)
(B) < (C) < (A) < (D)

Explanation

In SN1 substitution reaction, reactivity of compound depends on the stability of carbocation formed in the rate determination step. Reactivity of compound will be more when it's carbocation is more stable.



So stability order of carbocation :

C > D > A > B
