Question

Why is there an hydride shift in this reaction?

Answer 1

Answer:

One rearrangement pathway where an unstable carbocation can be transformed into a more stable carbocation is called a hydride shift. Look at the diagram below. ... In this rearrangement reaction, the pair of electrons in the C-H bond is transferred to the empty p orbital on the carbocation.
