Give the decreasing order of reactivity of the following compounds with HBr.
(I)

(II)

(III)

(IV)

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

Electron Releasing Group favours S N 1reactivity with HBr. EWGretards S N 1reactivity with HBr.
ERGeffect of-OMe(+R,-I)is greater than(Me)group+anH.C..So, reactivity ofIII>II.
InIV,-OMegroup is at m-position and exerts only-Ieffect and so reactivity ofIVis less thanI.
So the reactivity order is:III>II>I>IV
