MCQ
Chlorobenzene is
- ✓Less reactive than benzyl chloride
- BMore reactive than ethyl bromide
- CNearly as reactive as methyl chloride
- DMore reactive than isopropyl chloride
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
Less reactive than benzyl chloride
a
Chlorobenzene $(1)$ is less reactive than benzyl chloride $(2)$ In chlorobenzene the lone pairs present on $ Cl$ atom get involved in resonance with $\pi $electrons of benzene due to which $C - Cl$ bond acquires double bond character Hence, reactivity decreases.
