Hyperconjugation is most useful for stabilizing which of the following carbocations?

A

neo-Pnetyl

B

tert-Buyl

C

iso-Propyl

D

Ethyl

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
The stability of various alkyl carbocations on the basis of hyperconjugation is `3^(@)gt2^(@)gt1^(@)gt` methyl. In the tert-butyl cation, the cation bearing the positive charge is attached to three. methyl groups, hence it will give nine. hyperconjugative structures, thus imparting maximum stability.
