Which would undergo S(N)1 reaction faste...

Which would undergo `S_(N)1` reaction faster in the following pair?
`CH_(3)-CH_(2)-CH_(2)-BrandCH_(3)-undersetunderset(Br)(|)(C)H-CH_(3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Secondary halides prefer to undergo `S_(N)1` reaction than primary halides because of the formation of more stable carbocation. Hence, out of the given pair,
`2^(@)CH_(3)-undersetunderset(Br)(|)(CH)-CH_(3)` would undergo `S_(N)1` reaction faster.
