JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 12 - 6. Haloalkanes and Haloarenes
The decreasing order of reactivity towards dehydrohalogenation \((E_1)\) reaction of the following compounds is

- A \(B > D > A > C\)
- B \(B > D > C > A\)
- C \(D > B > C > A\)
- D \(B > A > D > C\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(D > B > C > A\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Reactivity \(D > B > C > A\) Carbocation formed from \(D\) is most stable Carbocation formed from \(A\) is least stable
