MCQ
Which of the reactions shown given will be faster?
  • A
    Reaction $1$
  • Reaction $2$
  • C
    Both have equal rates of reaction.
  • D
    Cannot be predicted.

Answer

Correct option: B.
Reaction $2$
Since given reaction is $\ce{S_{N2}}$​ and we know that $\ce{S_{N2}}$​ favoured in presence of polar aprotic solvent like crown$-$ethers, $\ce{DMSO, DMF}$, etc not $\ce{H_2​O}$ which is polar protic solvent.
In reaction $2$ polar solvent $($crown ether$)$ is used.
Thus reaction $2$ is faster than reaction $1$.
