Question
Which of the following is the most correct electron displacement for a nucleophilic reaction to take Place?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Answer :
Solution :
Allylic and benzylic halides show high reactivity towards $${S_N}1$$ reaction. Further, due to greater stabilisation of allyl and benzyl carbocations intermediates by resonance, primary allylic and primary benzylic halides show higher reactivity in $${S_N}1$$ reactions than other simple primary halides.
Hence, it undergoes nucleophilic reaction readily.
