    Which of the following compound is resistant to nucleophilic attack by hydroxyl ions [CBSE PMT 1998; KCET (Med.) 2001; AFMC 2001]

    A)                 Methyl acetate       

    B)                 Acetonitrile

    C)                 Dimethyl ether

    D)                 Acetamide

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    \[C{{H}_{3}}\to \underset{\cdot \,\cdot }{\overset{\cdot \,\,\cdot }{\mathop{O}}}\,\leftarrow C{{H}_{3}}\] The electron density of oxygen is highly increased therefore resistant its nucleophilic attack.
