Under idential conditions, the `S_(N)1`Reaction will occur most efficiently with-

A

ert-butyl chloride

B

1-chlorobutane

C

2-methyl-1-chloropropane

D

2-chlorobutane

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`S_(N)1` reaction proceeds via formation of carbocation intermediate. Thus more stable the carbocation, more reactive is the parent alkyl halide towards `S_(N)1` reaction On removal of `Cl^(-)` ion tert-butyl chloride gives `3^(@)` carbocation which is stabilised by 9 hyperconjugative H atoms. Therefore, tert-butyl chloride is most reactive. Hence, `S_(N)1` reaction will occur most efficiently with it.
