Benzyl chloride will undergo Sn1 reaction faster as it will form stable 2° carbocation which can be stabilized by π electrons of benzene ring. Whereas in case of methyl chloride, 1° carbocation is formed which is least stable. ... Which is more reactive towards an SN2 reaction, methyl chloride or CH2=CH-Cl?
