Aryl halides are less reactive towards nucleophilic substitution reactions as compared to alkyl halides due to

A

The formation of less stable carbonium iion

B

Resonance stablisation

C

Longer carbon halogen bond

D

`sp^(2)-` Hybrisised carbon attached to the halogen.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`(b,d)`
Aryl halides are less reactive towards nuceclphilic subsituation reaction as compared to alkyl halides due to the the following reason:
i. resonance stablisation
ii. `sp^(2)-` hybridised carbon attahced to the halogen.
