In the following pairs of halogen compounds,

Question: In the following pairs of halogen compounds, which compound undergoes faster SN1 reaction? (i) (ii) Solution: (i) SN1 reaction proceeds via the formation of carbocation. The alkyl halide (I) is 3 while (II) is 2. Therefore, (I) forms 3 carbocation while (II) forms 2 carbocation. Greater the stability of the carbocation, faster is the rate of SN1 reaction. Since 3 carbocation is more stable than 2 carbocation. (I), i.e. 2chloro-2-methylpropane, undergoes faster SN1 reaction than (II) i....
