As Bruno Barbier points out, you are probably OK: you just have to add
more stuff in the first chapter, so that when you click the link, the change
is visible.
Another way to see it is to look at the HTML file that is
produced: if that contains what you expect, then you should be
OK. That is a technique that is often useful in debugging export
problems, e.g. I often export to PDF (via LaTeX) and I look at the
produced LaTeX file (and sometimes tinker with it and process it
until I figure out what's wrong).
In this case, the HTML looks like this:
,----
| ...
| <div id="outline-container-org3629b2d" class="outline-2">
| <h2 id="org3629b2d"><span class="section-number-2">1</span> Introduction</h2>
| <div class="outline-text-2" id="text-1">
| <p>
| Monads will be explained in chapter <a href="#monads">2</a>
| </p>
| </div>
| </div>
| <div id="outline-container-org58a95fc" class="outline-2">
| <h2 id="monads"><span class="section-number-2">2</span> Monads</h2>
| <div class="outline-text-2" id="text-monads">
| <p>
| Welcome to the monads chapter.
| </p>
| </div>
| </div>
| ...
`----
which looks correct: the #monads href links the <h2 id="monads"> tag.
To test Bruno's hypothesis, I even added a bunch of
,----
| Lorem ipsum <br/>
`----
lines between the chapters right in the HTML file to make the second
chapter move down "below the fold" and see whether clicking the link
works: it did.
HTH.
