Chemistry Asked on January 14, 2021
Suppose I have 2 compounds, 3-chloropropene and 1-bromo-1-methylcyclohexane. Without knowing the values, how can we compare the rate of solvolysis?
My attempt: Resonance is quite dominant character thus alkyl chloride resonance I think should dominate over hyperconjugation but then we have an exception that 3 degree carbocation is more stable than benzyl carbocation hence there might be some disparity in orders.
Resonance effect is more stronger than hyperconjugation irrespective of the number of αH. In first case allylic carbocation is formed which is stabilised by resonance. So solvolysis rate is more for the first compound
