Multiple Choice Options
- A (i) > (ii) > (iii) > (iv)
- B (iv) > (ii) > (i) > (iii)
- C (ii) > (iv) > (i) > (iii)
- D (ii) > (iv) > (iii) > (i)
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
The ease of hydrolysis depends upon the
magnitude of the +ve charge on the carbonyl group.
Electron-withdrawing groups increase the
magnitude of positive charge and electron donating
groups decrease the magnitude of positive charge.
Hence, the decreasing order of reactivity towards
hydrolysis is
(ii) > (iv) > (i) > (iii)
