Chapter 6, Problem 43P

When the alkyl bromides (listed here) were subjected to hydrolysis in a mixture of ethanol and water ( 80 % E t O H / 20 % H 2 O ) at 55°C, the rates of the reaction showed the following order:

( C H 3 ) 3 C B r > C H 3 B r > C H 3 C H 2 B r > ( C H 3 ) 2 C H B r

Provide an explanation for this order of reactivity.
