Which alkyl halide from the following pairs would you expect to react more rapidly by `S_(N)2` mechanism? Explain.
`CH_(3)undersetunderset(CH_(3))(|)(C)HCH_(2)CH_(2)BrorCH_(3)CH_(2)undersetunderset(CH_(3))(|)(C)HCH_(2)Br`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`overset(4)CH_(3)overset(3)undersetunderset(CH_(3))(|)(C)Hoverset(2)CH_(2)overset(1)CH_(2)Br`
Reason Here, both are primary halides. The presence of methyl group closer to halide group increases the steric hindrance and decreases the rate in `overset(4)CH_(3)overset(3)CH_(2)undersetunderset(CH_(3))(|)overset(2)CHoverset(1)CH_(2)Br`.
