Which among the following is most reactive to give nucleophilic addition?
A.
$$FC{H_2}CHO$$
B.
$$ClC{H_2}CHO$$
C.
$$BrC{H_2}CHO$$
D.
$$IC{H_2}CHO$$
Answer :
$$FC{H_2}CHO$$
Solution :
$$FC{H_2}CHO$$ is most reactive towards nucleophilic addition since presence of most electronegative $$F$$ withdraws electrons from carbon of carbonyl group making it more polar.
