As we have learnt,

Acid derivatives can be arranged in the order of Nucleophilic substitution at acyl carbon on the basis of the leaving group ability of the leaving group.

Leaving group ability of the groups are given as

\mathrm{Cl^\ominus > RCOO^\ominus> OR^\ominus > NH_2^\ominus}

Hence, the reactivity order is

Hence, the correct answer is option (1).
