Question

Arrange the following compounds in the order of decreasing tendency towards $S N_{2}$ reaction.

$C H_{3} C H_{2} C H_{2} C l . . . . . . . . . (i)$
$C H_{3} C H_{2} C H C l C H_{3} . . . . . . . (i i)$
$(C H_{3})_{2} C H C H_{2} C l . . . . . . . . (i i i)$
$(C H_{3})_{3} C - C l . . . . . . . . . . (i v)$

i > i i i > i i > i v

Solution

The correct option is A $i > i i i > i i > i v$
Lesser the bulkiness of an alkyl halide, faster is the substitution by $S N^{2}$ .
