Solution
The correct option is Cz>x>y Above will be the anions formed, after the removal of proton. Out of these y′ will be unstable as it is anti-aromatic ring, ionization of y to y′ will not be favored. z′ will be the most stable as it is aromatic ring and the negative charge is stabilized by −(n) group through −I effect. x′ also will be stable due to aromatic nature of the ring but will be less stable than z′.
