प्रश्न
Which would undergo SN2 reaction faster in the following pair and why ?
उत्तर
Primary alkyl halides prefer to undergo SN2 reactions than tertiary alkyl halides because of less steric hindrance experienced by the approaching nucleophile. Hence, out of the given pair (CH3−CH2−Br) would undergo SN2 reaction faster.
