Reactivity of order of halides for dehydrohalogenation is

A

R- Fgt R-Clgt R-Brgt R-I

B

R- I gt R-Brgt R-Clgt R-F

C

R-Igt R-Clgt R-Brgt R-F

D

R=-Fgt Rgt-I gt R-brgt R-Cl

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
b

As the size of halide ion increases the R-X bond with strength decreases and the halide ion will br a good leaving group . Thus the reactivity order is
R-l> R-Br> R-Cl> R-F
