A) Ethyl acetate
B) Acetic anhydride
C) Acetamide
D) Acetyl chloride
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
The order of reactivity of acid derivatives towards different reactions decreases in the order, \[RCOCl>{{(RCO)}_{2}}O>RCOO{R}'>RCON{{H}_{2}}\] In other words, the reactivity decreases as the basicity of the leaving group increases i.e., \[C{{l}^{-}}<RCO{{O}^{-}}<R{{O}^{-}}<NH_{2}^{-}\]You need to login to perform this action.
