Question
from the following pair would undergo SN2 faster from the other?
Advertisements
Solution
Compound (a) will undergo SN2 mechanism faster than (b).
Explanation:
- Sincey
is a primary halide it undergoes S2N reaction faster than 
. - Since iodine is a better leaving group than chloride, 1-iodo propane (CH3CH2CH2I) undergoes S2N reaction faster than l-chloropropane (CH3CH2CH2CI).
