JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 12 - 6. Haloalkanes and Haloarenes
Given below are two statements :
Statement I : \(\mathrm{CH}_3-\mathrm{O}-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{Cl}\) will undergo \(\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{N}} 1\) reaction though it is a primary halide.
Statement II :

will not undergo \(S_N 2\) reaction very easily though it is a primary halide.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
- A Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect
- B Both Statement I and Statement II are correct
- C Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct
- D Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Both Statement I and Statement II are correct
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Both statement-I and statement-II are correct Statement - I: \(\mathrm{CH}_3-\mathrm{O}-\stackrel{\oplus}{\mathrm{C}} \mathrm{H}_2\) is highly stable carbocation. Statement - II: Due to hindrance, \(\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{N}} 2\) will not take place easily.
