Question

Why vinyl halide is least reactive in nucleophilic substitution reactions?

Answer 1

Vinyl chloride (CH2=CHCl) is unreactive in nucleophilic substitution reaction due to resonance. In vinyl chloride, the lone pair of electrons onchlorine is in resonance with the C-C double bond, because of which there is partial double bond character in C-Clbond.

Answer 2
