    The correct decreasing order of nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction for the following compounds is
    (I) (II)
    (III) (IV)
     

    A) \[I>III>IV>II\]  

    B) \[II>IV>III>I\]  

    C) \[II>IV>I>III\]

    D) \[IV>II>III>I\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] \[II>IV>III>I\] The leaving group F is same, so the ArSN reactivity is determined by EWG \[(-N{{O}_{2}})\] group. More the EWG, more rapid is the reaction. EW power of \[(-N{{O}_{2}})\] at \[o>p>m\]. Although negative charge in aren anion, is equally stabilised by \[(-N{{O}_{2}})\] group at o- and p-position, -I power of \[(-N{{O}_{2}})\] group is slightly more at ortho than at para.
