Current Question (ID: 21239)

Question:
$\text{The increasing order of nucleophilicity of the following nucleophiles is:}$ $\begin{array}{ll} (a) & \text{CH}_3\text{CO}_2^- \\ (b) & \text{H}_2\text{O} \\ (c) & \text{CH}_3\text{SO}_3^- \\ (d) & \text{OH}^- \end{array}$
Options:
  • 1. $(b) < (c) < (a) < (d)$
  • 2. $(b) < (c) < (d) < (a)$
  • 3. $(a) < (d) < (c) < (b)$
  • 4. $(d) < (a) < (c) < (b)$
Solution:
$\text{Hint: As electron density increases nucleophilicity of the nucleophile increases.}$ $\text{The neutral compound is less nucleophilic than the anionic compound because electron density in the anionic compound is more than the neutral compound.}$ $\text{Hence, } \text{H}_2\text{O} \text{ is the least nucleophilic in nature. Among } \text{HO}^-, \text{CH}_3\text{COO}^-, \text{ and } \text{CH}_3\text{SO}_3^-, \text{ the hydroxide ion is the strongest nucleophile because in } \text{CH}_3\text{COO}^- \text{, and } \text{CH}_3\text{SO}_3^- \text{ resonance takes place and resonance decreases the electron density in the atom and nucleophilicity of the group decreases.}$ $\text{In } \text{CH}_3\text{COO}^-, \text{ and } \text{CH}_3\text{SO}_3^-, \text{ CH}_3\text{COO}^- \text{ is a better nucleophile than } \text{CH}_3\text{SO}_3^- \text{ because more resonance effect occurs in } \text{CH}_3\text{SO}_3^- \text{ than } \text{CH}_3\text{COO}^-. \text{ Due to this nucleophilicity of } \text{CH}_3\text{SO}_3^- \text{ decreases.}$ $\text{Hence, the increasing order of nucleophilicity of the following nucleophile is as follows:}$ $\text{H}_2\text{O} < \text{CH}_3\text{SO}_3^- < \text{CH}_3\text{COO}^- < \text{OH}^-$
