Question:
The most reactive to nucleophilic attack at the carbonyl group is
The most reactive to nucleophilic attack at the carbonyl group is
Updated On: Jun 14, 2022
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
The case with which a nucleophile attacks the carbonyl group depends upon the electron deficiency, i.e. the magnitude of positive charge on carbonyl group carbon. Since, among all the groups attached
undefined
has maximum electron withdrawing effect, electron deficiency will be maximum at carbonyl carbon of acetyl chloride. Hence, acetyl chloride, i.e.
is most reactive to nucleophilic attack at carbonyl group
undefinedhas maximum electron withdrawing effect, electron deficiency will be maximum at carbonyl carbon of acetyl chloride. Hence, acetyl chloride, i.e.
is most reactive to nucleophilic attack at carbonyl group

Hydrocarbons - Reaction Mechanism
Hydrocarbons are organic compounds that are entirely made up of only two kinds of atoms – carbon and hydrogen. Typically, hydrocarbons are colourless gases that have very weak odours.
Mechanism of electrophilic substitution reactions:
According to experimental evidences, SE (S = substitution; E = electrophilic) reactions are supposed to proceed via the following three steps:
- Generation of the electrophile
- Formation of carbocation intermediate
