$CH_{3}Br$

Vedclass · Answer

(D) The reactivity of alkyl halides towards $SN^{1}$ reactions depends on the stability of the carbocation intermediate formed. The order of stability of carbocations is: $3^{\circ} > 2^{\circ} > 1^{\circ} > 	ext{methyl}$. Therefore,the order of reactivity towards $SN^{1}$ is: $(CH_{3})_{3}CBr > CH_{3}CH(Br)CH_{3} > CH_{3}CH_{2}Br > CH_{3}Br$. Thus,$CH_{3}Br$ (methyl bromide) is the least reactive.
