Allyl chloride is hydrolysed more readily than n-propyl chloride. Why ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

As we know that S1 mechanism depends uo the stability of carbocation Allyl chloride on hydrolysis gives resonance stabilised carbocaion while no resonance is observed in the carbocation formed by n-propyl chloride

Hence, allyl chloride undergoes hydrolysis much faster than n-propyl chloride.
