Benzylamine may be alkylated as shown in...

Benzylamine may be alkylated as shown in the following equation :
`C_(6)H_(5)CH_(2)NH_(2)+R-X rarr C_(6)H_(5)CH_(2)NHR` Which of the following alkyl halides is best suited for this reaction through S N ​ 1 mechanism?

A

`CH_(3)Br`

B

`C_(6)H_(5)Br`

C

`C_(6)H_(5)CH_(2)Br`

D

`C_(2)H_(5)Br`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`C_(6)H_(5)CH_(2)Br` on ionization gives benzyl carbocation. `C_(6)H_(5)CH_(2)^(+)` which is resonance stabilized.
Therefore, `C_(6)H_(5)CH_(2)Br` is best suited for `S_(N)1` reaction.
