ch3br +nu- →ch3-nu +br- . The decreasing order of rate of above reaction with nucleophile nu- isA)pho_B) ACO-c)Ho-D) ch3o- |
|
Answer» The decreasing order of rate of above reaction with nucleophile nu- is CH3O– > HO– > PhO– > AcO– Explanation: If the nucleophilic atom or the centre is same, more basic the species stronger is the nucleophile. Here, the nucleophilic atom i.e. O is the same in all these species. This order can be easily explained on the general concept that a weaker acid has a stronger conjugate base. |
