Predict the order of reactivity of the following four isomers towards SN2 reaction.
(I) CH3CH2CH2CH2Cl
(II) CH3CH2CH(Cl)CH3
(III) (CH3)2CHCH2Cl
(IV) (CH3)3CCl
- A(IV) > (II) > (III) > (I)
- B(IV) > (III) > (II) > (I)
- C(I) > (II) > (III) > (IV)
- D(I) > (III) > (II) > (IV)

Correct answer: D
$\bullet$ Lesser the steric hinderance on halide carbon, more will be the reactivity of alkyl halide towards SN2 reaction.
$\bullet$ So correct order towards SN2 reactivity is :
