Which of the following carbocations will not rearrange?

A

B

C

D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
The rearrangement of a carbocation is possible only if it can forma more stable carbocation. Sometimes, it can also release angle strain present in relatively smaller or bigger rings. Hence (A), (B) and (D) rearrange as shown below. The compound (C) cannot rearrange because formation of more stable carbocation is not possible by shifting alkyl group.
