MCQ
The compound most reactive towards $S _{ N } 1$ reaction is :
- A$MeCOCH _{2} Cl$
- B
- C$C _{6} H _{5} CH _{2} CH _{2} Cl$
- ✓$MeOCH _{2} Cl$
✓
Answer
Correct option: D.
$MeOCH _{2} Cl$
d
The $SN _{1}$ reaction for $MeCOCH _{2} Cl$ is given as,
The $SN _{1}$ reaction for $MeCOCH _{2} Cl$ is given as,
$MeOCH _{2} Cl$ $\xrightarrow{Slow}$$\underset{(i)}{\mathop{Me\underset{\,\,\centerdot \,\,\centerdot }{\overset{\centerdot \,\,\centerdot }{\mathop{O}}}\,\overset{+}{\mathop{C{{H}_{2}}}}\,+C{{l}^{-}}}}\,$ $\leftrightarrow $ $\underset{(ii)}{\mathop{Me-\underset{\,\,\centerdot \,\,\centerdot }{\overset{+}{\mathop{O}}}\,=C{{H}_{2}}}}\,$
Though $(ii)$ contains positive charge on oxygen, octet around each atom in $(ii)$ is complete, structure $(ii)$ is more stable than $(i)$.
