Concept explainers
Interpretation: The given compounds are to be ranked in increasing order of stability.
Concept introduction: Diene is a hydrocarbon that contains two
Conjugated diene consists of two double bonds that are separated by a single bond, whereas isolated diene also consists of two double bond but they are separated by two more carbon atoms.
The stability of diene depends upon the number of conjugated double bond. Conjugation involves overlapping of
