Question

Stability order of the following Carbocations.
A)
B)
NH
C)​

Answer 1

Answer:

The stability of carbocation is 3°-carbocation > 2°-carbocation > 1°-carbocation

(a) (CH3)3C---CH2+ {1°-carbocation}

(b) (CH)3C+ {3°-carbocation}

(c)CH3-CH2-CH2+{1°-carbocation}

(d)CH3CH⁺CH2CH3 {2°-carbocation}

because 3°-carbocation is option (b) hence, option (b) is the most stable carbocation.
