View SolutionConsider the following alcohols:
$(I)$ $C_6H_5CH_2OH$
$(II)$ $O_2N-C_6H_4-CH_2OH$ (para-nitro)
$(III)$ $CH_3O-C_6H_4-CH_2OH$ (para-methoxy)
$(IV)$ $Br-C_6H_4-CH_2OH$ (para-bromo)
The order of decreasing reactivities of these alcohols towards nucleophilic substitution with $HBr$ is:
$(I)$ $C_6H_5CH_2OH$
$(II)$ $O_2N-C_6H_4-CH_2OH$ (para-nitro)
$(III)$ $CH_3O-C_6H_4-CH_2OH$ (para-methoxy)
$(IV)$ $Br-C_6H_4-CH_2OH$ (para-bromo)
