Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A): is an example of allyl halide.
Reason (R): Allyl halides are the compounds in which the halogen atom is attached to hybridised carbon atom.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below: [2024]
(A) is true but (R) is false
Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
(A) is false but (R) is true
Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
(A)
A carbon next to C=C is called allylic carbon. A halide carrying halogen on allylic carbon is called an allylic halide. is hence an allylic halide. Halides containing a halogen atom attached to an carbon of an aromatic ring are called aryl halides and those containing a halogen atom attached to an carbon of a C=C bond are called vinyl halides.
