Which halogen compound in each of the following pairs will reacts faster in `S_(N)2` reaction:
(ii) `(CH_3)_(3)C-Cl` or `CH_(3)-Cl`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Due to less steric hindrance, `CH_(3)Cl` undergoes `S_(N)2` reaction at a much faster rate than `(CH_3)_(3)C Cl(a3^(@)` substrate).
