(c) C₆H₅C(CH₃)(C₆H₅)Br
Explanation:
C₆H₅C(CH₃)(C₆H₅)Br has a carbocation of 3 degrees. 3 degrees is high reactivity for SN¹, so C₆H₅C(CH₃)(C₆H₅)Br will be the most reactive towards SN¹ reaction, among the given compounds. SN1 reaction is unimolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction.
Option C is the answer.
