प्रश्न
Which would undergo SN2 reaction faster in the following pair and why ?
CH3 – CH2 – Br and CH3 – CH2 – I
Advertisements
उत्तर
CH3 – CH2 – I would undergo an SN2 reaction faster than CH3 – CH2 – Br. Since iodine is a better leaving group because of its large size, it will be released at a faster rate in the presence of an incoming nucleophile as compared to bromine.
