The order of circled \(\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{H}\) bond dissociation energy in the following compound is

  1. A II > I > IV > III
  2. B IV > III > I > II
  3. C I > II > IV > III
  4. D I > IV > II > III
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) I > II > IV > III

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Bond dissociation energy or bond energy (BE) of \(\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{H}\) bond of a hydrocarbon \((R \mathrm{H})\) can be predicted from stability of free radical \(\left(R^{\bullet}\right)\) formed by homolytic bond fission of \(\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{H}\) bond of the hydrocarbon.…
