Which one of each pair undergoes `S_(N)I` reaction readily and why?
(i) `CH_(2)=CHCH_(2)CH_(2)Cl, CH_(3)CH =CHCH_(2)Cl` .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The carocation obtained from C-Cl bond cleavage of the second compound is stablised by resonance. Because of this, it undergoes `S_(N)1` reaction readily. On the other hand, being a primary substrate the first compound does not undergo `S_(N)1` reaction.
