Two optical and two geometrical.
34 (3)
Most stable carbocation formation by
halide shows more reactivity for SN1
reactions.

𝑝- dichlorobenzene molecule has
symmetrical structure. It can fit well in its
crystal lattice. The intermolecular forces
of attraction are strong. Hence, it
possesses highest melting point. Chloride is an 1° aliphatic carbon which is
45 (1) substituted easier in comparison to iodide
46 (3) which is arylic and more stable due to
47 (3) delocalisation hence, difficult to
1-chlorobutane gives butene-1 on substitute.

PhS - is a strong nucleophile and dimethyl
formamide (DMF) is a highly polar aprotic
solvent. Condition indicates that
nucleophilic substitution (SN 2) takes
place at 2° benzylic place,
stereochemically, it involves inversion of
configuration.
