Question
Chapter 7, Problem 69P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The most stable carbocation needs to be determined.
Concept introduction: Carbocations are intermediates form during a reaction and their stability depends on three main factors listed below:
- The stability of carbocations increases with an increase in the number of carbon atoms in the molecule. (tertiary carbocation > secondary carbocation > primarycarbocation).
- Presence of pi bonds which allow carbocation to take part in resonance which stabilizes the positive charge on carbocation.
- Presence of electron donating group or atom with lone pairs.
