JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 11 - 8.4. Organic chemistry reaction mechanism
Relative stability of the contributing structures is _______.

- A \((I) \)>\( (III) \)>\( (II)\)
- B \((I) \)>\( (II) \)>\( (III)\)
- C \((II) \)>\( (I) \)>\( (III)\)
- D \((III) \)>\( (II) \)>\( (I)\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \((I) \)>\( (II) \)>\( (III)\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\((1)\) Neutral structures are more stable than charged ones. Therefore \(I\) is more stable than \(II\) and \(III\). \((2)\) +ve charge on less electronegative atom is more stable i.e., \(\mathrm{C}^{\oplus}\) is more stable than \(\mathrm{O}^{\oplus}\) \(\therefore\) Order is…
