Compare the stabilities of the following carbanions : underset((a))(CH

1.	Compare the stabilities of the following carbanions : underset((a))(CH_(3)-CH_(2)-CH_(2)) underset((b))(NO_(2) -CH_(2)-CH_(2))
Answer» Solution :The COMPARISON for the satbility of CARBANIONS is as follows :`(B) gt (a)` . This is because - I effect of `-NO_(2)` is more than `CH_(5)`
