B

`CH_3CH_2Cl`

C

`(CH_3)_3"CCl"`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`CHI_2=underset("(Vinyl Chloride)")(CH-Cl)`
The halogen atom in vinyl chloride is not reactive as in other alkyl halides. The non-reactivity of chlorine atom is due to resonance stabilisation. The l.p. on Cl-atom can participate in delocalisation (Resonance) to give two canonical structure.
