Most reactive halide towards SN1 reaction is:
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is A n-butyl chloride
Organic compounds are more reactive towards SN1, if the carbocation is stable compared to others.Here, in allyl chloride ⇒CH2=CH−CH2−Cl the cation formed is CH2=CH−C⊕H2⇋C⊕H2−CH=CH2 is stabilized by equivalent resonance. So, allyl chloride has high reactivity towards SN1.
