Consider the following carbocation:
(i) `Cl_(3)overset(+)C`
(ii) `Cl_(2)overset(+)CH` , (iii) `Cloverset(+)CH_(2)` , (iv) `overset(+)CH_(3)`The stability order is

A

`(iv) lt (i) lt (ii) lt (iii)`

B

`(i) lt (ii) lt (iii) lt (iv)`

C

`(iv) lt (i) lt (iii) lt (ii)`

D

`(iv) lt (ii) lt (i) lt (iii)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Cl due to its -I effect further intensifies the +ve charge and thus destabilizes the carbocation. Thus, as the number of Cl atoms increases, the stability further decreases. Thus, option (b) is correct.
