Which will react faster in `S_(N^(2))` displacement reaction, 1-Bromopentane or 2-Bromopentane and why?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The order of reactivity of alkyl halides towards `S_(N^(2))` displacement reactions is:
primarygtsecondarygttertiary. Therefore 1-Bromopentane will react faster.
