Explain why (CH 3 ) 3 C + is more stable than CH 3 CH 2 + ?

Options

  1. AHyperconjugation interaction in (CH 3 ) 3 C + is greater than in CH 3 CH 2 + as the (CH 3 ) 3 C + has nine C-H
  2. B(CH 3 ) 3 C + is more stable because it has a lower degree of hyperconjugation due to the presence of three me
  3. C(CH 3 ) 3 C + is more stable because it has a greater number of pi bonds, which increases electron delocalizat
  4. D(CH 3 ) 3 C + is more stable because it has a higher molecular weight, leading to stronger van der Waals force

Correct answer

A. Hyperconjugation interaction in (CH 3 ) 3 C + is greater than in CH 3 CH 2 + as the (CH 3 ) 3 C + has nine C-H

Step-by-step solution

Correct Option is : (A) Hyperconjugation interaction in (CH 3 ) 3 C + is greater than in CH 3 CH 2 + as the (CH 3 ) 3 C + has nine C-H bonds.
