Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

  • The molecule in the option (B) is least resonance stabilised. This is because, the three C=C double bonds are not part of benzene ring (i.e, they do not form alternate single and double bond system in a ring system). All the carbon atoms are not sp2 hybridised. Hence, this molecule is not aromatic. All the remaining molecules are aromatic which leads to delocalisation and obeys Huckels rule.
