Hey dear,
● Answer -
Primary alkyl halides prefer SN2 reaction due to less steric hindrance.
● Explanation -
- SN2 reaction is a bimolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction in which simultaneous bond-making and bond-breaking steps occur.
- SN2 reactions are greatly retarded by steric hindrance at the site of reaction.
- As primary alkyl halides are less sterically hindered, they undergo SN2 reaction.
* Reactivity towards SN2 reaction of alkyl halides -
1° > 2° > 3°
Hope this helps you...
