Order of reactivity towards nucleophilic substitution reaction is allyl halide > alkyl halide > vinyl halide > halobenzene.

Q. Which one of the following is most reactive towards nucleophilic substitution reaction?

$C H_{2} = C H - Cl$

$C_{6} H_{5} Cl$

$C H_{3} C H = C H - Cl$

$ClC H_{2} C H = C H_{2}$

Order of reactivity towards nucleophilic substitution reaction is

allyl halide $>$ alkyl halide $>$ vinyl halide $>$ halobenzene.
