Solution
The correct option is C I>II>III>IV
In (b), due to steric inhibition of resonance the amine group will goes out of the plane. Thus it will restrict the resonance of lone pair of electron of N on benzene ring.
In (c), due to cross conjugation the lone pair of electron on N involves in delocalisation with carbonyl group. This decrease the +M effect of N.
In (d), we have two carbonyl groups so more cross conjuation will exist and it results in least +M effect of N.
In (a), due to absence of SIR and cross conjugate it will show the highest +M effect.
Thus, the +M order is
