Consider the reaction : CH(3)CH(2)CH(2...

Consider the reaction :
`CH_(3)CH_(2)CH_(2)Br+NaCNrarrCH_(3)CH_(2)CH_(2)CN+NaBr`
This reaction will be the fastest in :

A

`N,N^(+)`- dimethyl formamide (DMF)

B

Water

C

Ethanol

D

Methanol

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`CH_3CH_2CH_3Br + NaCN to CH_3CH_2CH_2CN + NaBr`
This is a substitution reaction & follows `S_N 2` pathway. Reagents which gives fastest `S_N 2` reaction are `DMSO` (dimethyl sulphoxide) or DMF (`N, N^+` dimethyl for amide) , these are non, polar solvents.
