The organic chloro compound, which shows complete stereochemical inversion during a `S_(N)^(2)` reaction, is:

A

`CH_(3)Cl`

B

`(C_(2)H_(5))_(2)CHCl`

C

`(CH_(3))_(3)C Cl`

D

`(CH_(3))_(2)CHCl`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`S_(N)2` reactions are accomplished by complete stereochemical inversion. Since `1^(@)` alkyl halides are most prone to `S_(N)2` reactions, therefore, `CH_(3)Cl` undergoes complete stereochemical inversion.
