Identify the correct of reactivity in electrophilic substitution reaction of the following compounds.
(1) Benzene
(2) Toluene
(3) Chlorobenzene,
(4) Nitrobenzene.

A

`(1) gt (2) gt (3) gt (4)`

B

`(4) gt (3) gt (2) gt (1)`

C

`(2) gt (1) gt (3) gt (4)`

D

`(2) gt (3) gt (1) gt (4)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`EDG` increases the reactivity of `SE` reaction and `EWG` decreases it. So the answer is (c).
`(2) Ph- CH_3` (`+ I` and `H.C` effects) `gt (1)` benzene ` gt (3) PhCl` [`- I` effect `(Cl)` group] `gt PhNO_2` [`- I` and `+ R` effects of `(-NO_2)` group].
