NEET · Chemistry · STD 11 - 8.4. Organic chemistry reaction mechanism

Consider the following compounds : Hyperconjugation occurs in

  1. A \(III\) only
  2. B \(I\) and \(III\)
  3. C \(I\) only
  4. D \(II\) only.
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(III\) only

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Hyperconjugation occurs through the \(H-\) atoms present on the carbon atom next to the double bond i.e alpha hydrogen atoms. There is no alpha \(-H\) in the structure \(I\) and \(II\). So, hyperconjugation occurs in structure \(III\) only ie.
