    According to fundamental concept of organic chemistry 6 hyperconjugation of a molecule is considered to be as same as a equivallent canonical structure for molecular or in this case carbocation stabilisation. So as in this case tert butyl carbocation has 3 hyperconjugation extra thus tert butyl carbocation should be stable than allylic carbocation.

    i dont get it can u plz explain again

    eduncle-logo-app

    means allylic me 2 equivalent canonical structure hai jo 6 hyperconjugative structure se same hote hai..now tert butyl carbocations is 3 hyperconjugative structure more stable so more stable

    eduncle-logo-app

    and also tert butyl carbocation is more stable as +H effect and +I effect of methyl group is there

    okay thank u very much

    option C Explanation- More the resonance more is the stability of carbocation. I and III are more stable due to +I as well as +H effect of CH3 groups. in I there is +R effect of benzine ring so most stable. II is least stable due to bridge head carbocation. we know that positive charge is less stable at bridge head position due to non planarity

    why D is least stable than C

    eduncle-logo-app

    actually in case of III both +I as well as +H works simultaneously

    still any doubt?

  • Amol ashok pawar

    Option C As structure 1 is aromatic so it is most stable and in 2 the carbocation is on bridge which makes it least stable

  • Rutik

    why allylic carbocation least stable than tertiary carbocation ?
