The correct stability order of the following carbocations is
\(\underset{\text{I}}{\mathrm{H}_2 \stackrel{\oplus}{\mathrm{C}}-\mathrm{CH}=\mathrm{CH}-\mathrm{CH}_3}\)
\(\underset{\text{II}}{\stackrel{\oplus}{\mathrm{C}} \mathrm{H}_2-\mathrm{CH}=\mathrm{CH}-\mathrm{BMe}_2}\)
\(\underset{\text{III}}{\mathrm{H}_2 \stackrel{\oplus}{\mathrm{C}}-\mathrm{CH}=\mathrm{CH}-\mathrm{NMe}_2}\)
\(\underset{\text{Iv}}{\mathrm{H}_2 \stackrel{\oplus}{\mathrm{C}}-\mathrm{CH}=\mathrm{CH}-\mathrm{OMe}}\)

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

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) III \( > \) IV \( > \) I \( > \) II

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Hint: \(\quad\) III \( > \) IV \( > | > | \mid\) \(\left.+\mathrm{R} \text { effect : }-\ddot{\mathrm{N}}\mathrm{Me}_2\right\rangle-\underset{\cdot\cdot}{\ddot{\mathrm{O}}} \mathrm{CH}_3\) \(-\mathrm{BMe}_2\) can show \(-\mathrm{R}\) effect
