Assertion (A) In cpmparison to ethyl chloride , it is not easy to carry out nucleophilic substitution on vinyl chloride.
Reason (R ) Vinyl group is an electron donating.

A

Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion

B

Both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not a correct explanation of Assertion

C

Assertion is true but Reason is false

D

Assertion is false but Reason is true

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Vinyl group i.e. -CH=`CH_2` is electron deficient in nature that is why it cannot donate electrons, on contrast it can withdraw electron. Hence, reason is incorrect.
