AP EAMCET · Chemistry · Haloalkanes and Haloarenes
Which among the following is most common in alkyl halides?
- A Nucleophilic substitution
- B Electrophilic substitution
- C Electrophilic addition
- D Nucleophilic addition
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) Nucleophilic substitution
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Alkyl halides readily undergo nucleophilic substitution like \(\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{N}} 2\) and \(\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{N}} 1\). Here a stronger nucleophile, \(\mathrm{Nu}^{\ominus}\) substitutes a weaker nucleophile (leaving group : \(X^{-}\)) from an alkyl halide.
