Reaction intermdiates are short lived species and are highly reactive. They are formed by heterolytic and homolytic bond fission. There are various types of reaction intermediates in which the most important are carbocation , carbanion and free radical. Carbocation is an organic species in which carbon have positive charge and six electrons in its outermost shell. The stability of carbocation can be increased by positive inductive effect, hyperconjugation and delocalisation. If alpha -atom with respect to carbocation has one or more lone pair of electron then lone pair of electron strongly stabilises the carbocation due to octet completion. Species in which carbon have negative charge is called carbanion. Carbanion carries three bond pairs and one lone pair. The stability of carbanion can be increased by negative inductive effect, negative mesomeric effect and delocalisation. Free radical is a species which have seven electrons in its outermost shell. The stability of free radical can be increased by hyperconjugation and delocalisation. The stability order of following carbocations is

The most important condition for resonanace to occur is that the invovled atoms in resonating structure must be coplanar or nearly coplanar for maximum delocalisation. If this condition does not fulfil, involved orbitals cannot be parallel to each other and as consequence delocalisation cannot occur. Bulky groups present on adjacent atoms inhibit the planarity of atoms involved in resonance. this pehnomenon is known as steric inhibition of resonance. Steric inhibition of resonance has profound effect on Q. Arrange the following in the decreasing order of basicity: .

Assertion: - 3^@ carbocations are more stable than 1^@ and 2^@ carbocations. Reason :- The+I effect of alkyl groups decreases the magnitude of positive charge to the maximum possible extent in a 3^@ carbocation
