Correct stability order of following carbocation :-
(i)`CH_3-O-overset(o+)CH_2`
(ii)`Ph-overset(o+)CH_2`
(iii)`CH_2=CH-overset(o+)CH_2`
(iv)`Ph^(o+)`

A

ii gt i gt iii gt iv

B

i gt ii gt iii gt iv

C

iii gt i gt ii gt iv

D

iv gt i gt ii gt iii

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
(iii)`CH_2=CH-overset(o+)CH_2` Resonance stabilised . 2 resonating structure
(iv)`Ph^(o+)` No. resonance of +ve charge
`therefore` stability is (i) gt (ii) gt (iii) gt (iv)
