Which among the following is benzylic halide?
- A \(\mathrm{C}_6 \mathrm{H}_5-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{X}\)
- B \(\mathrm{C}_6 \mathrm{H}_5-\mathrm{X}\)
- C \(\mathrm{C}_6 \mathrm{H}_5-\mathrm{CH}=\mathrm{CH}-\mathrm{X}\)
- D \(\mathrm{C}_6 \mathrm{H}_5-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{X}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(\mathrm{C}_6 \mathrm{H}_5-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{X}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In benzylic halides, halogen atom is bonded to a \(\mathrm{sp}^3\) hybridized carbon atom which is further bonded to an aromatic ring.
Hence, \(\mathrm{C}_6 \mathrm{H}_5-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{X}\) is a benzylic halide.
Hence, \(\mathrm{C}_6 \mathrm{H}_5-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{X}\) is a benzylic halide.
