प्रश्न
Nucleophilic substitution reaction of 2, 4-dinitrochlorobenzene is faster than p-nitrochlorobenzene. Give reason.
Advertisements
उत्तर
- The presence of electron-withdrawing (–NO2) group at ortho and para position greatly increases the reactivity of 2, 4-dinitrochlorobenzene towards substitution of halogen atom.
- Greater the number of electron-withdrawing (–NO2) groups at o and p position, greater is the reactivity. Therefore, nucleophilic substitution reaction of 2, 4-dinitrochlorobenzene is faster than p-nitrochlorobenzene.
