Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The rate of substitution in a deiodination reaction is Ar-F <Ar-Cl < Ar-Br < Ar-I is to be explained.

Concept introduction:

In a deiodination reaction, a positive charge appears on the iodine atom attached to the benzene ring in the intermediate species. The halogen, which is less electronegative and larger in size, best stabilizes the positive charge. Iodine is larger in size and less electronegative. As the size of halogen decreases and electronegativity increases, stability of positive charge decreases. The order of stability in increasing order is F < Cl < Br < I.
