Some Basic Principles Of Organic Chemistry Question 175
Question: Which of the following orders regarding relative stability of free radicals is correct [UPSEAT 2004]
Options:
A) $ 3{}^\circ <2{}^\circ <1{}^\circ $
B) $ 3{}^\circ >2{}^\circ >1{}^\circ $
C) $ 1{}^\circ <2{}^\circ >3{}^\circ $
D) $ 3{}^\circ >2{}^\circ <1{}^\circ $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
Due to the increasing no.
of hyperconjugative structures free radical stabilise following as $ 3{}^\circ >2{}^\circ >1{}^\circ $ .
