Correct answer: C
-
Principle for reaction
An reaction proceeds through formation of a carbocation in the rate-determining step. So, a halide will show only if loss of halide ion can generate a reasonably stable carbocation.
-
Examine option (A)
This is allyl chloride. On ionization, it forms an allylic carbocation:
This carbocation is resonance stabilized, so (A) can undergo .
-
Examine option (B)
Here chlorine is attached directly to a double-bonded carbon; this is a vinylic halide.
If leaves, the carbocation formed would be a vinyl carbocation, which is highly unstable:
Therefore, vinylic halides do not undergo reaction.
-
Conclusion from given answer choices
Since (A) shows and (B) does not, the only option consistent with this is:
which corresponds to Option C.
-
Comparison with stored correct answer
Stored correct answer = C
Derived answer = C
Hence, they agree.
