In the following carbocation, \(\mathrm{H} / \mathrm{CH}_3\) that is most likely to migrate to the positively charged carbon is

- A \(\mathrm{CH}_3\) at \(\mathrm{C}-4\)
- B \(\mathrm{H}\) at \(\mathrm{C}-4\)
- C \(\mathrm{CH}_3\) at \(\mathrm{C}-2\)
- D \(\mathrm{H}\) at \(\mathrm{C}-2\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(\mathrm{H}\) at \(\mathrm{C}-2\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
