Which of the following alkoxide nucleophiles is most reactive towards SN^2reaction

Answer»

`CH_3O^-`
`CH_3CH_2O^-`
`CH_3-undersetoverset(|)(CH_3)(C )H - O^-`
`(CH_3)_3CO^- `

SOLUTION : ELECTRON DENSITY at oxygen of Alkoxide ion increases reactivity decreases towards `SN` reactionhence `CH_3O^-`is more REACTIVE
