Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine which of the given compounds is most reactive towards an \( S_N2 \) reaction, we need to analyze the structure of each compound and consider the steric hindrance around the carbon atom that is attached to the leaving group (bromine in this case). The compounds given are: 1. \( CH_3Br \) (Methyl bromide) 2. \( (CH_3)_2CHBr \) (Isopropyl bromide) 3. \( (CH_3)_3CBr \) (Tert-butyl bromide) ### Step-by-Step Solution: ...
