Question

Consider the following carbocations,
(I) $C_{6} H_{5} + C H_{2}$
(II) $C_{6} H_{5} C H_{2} + C H_{2}$
(III) $C_{6} H_{5} C H C H_{3}$
(IV) $C_{6} H_{5} + C (C H_{3})_{2}$
The correct sequence of the stability of these is:

I I < I < I I I < I V

Solution

The correct option is B $I I < I < I I I < I V$
Resonance and inductive effect decide stability of carbocations.
$∴$ Correct order of stability is $I I < I < I I I < I V$
