The increasing order of stability of the following free radicals is :A. `(CH_(3))_(2)overset(*)(C)H lt (CH_(3))_(3) overset(*)(C) lt (C_(6)H_(5))_(2) overset(*)(C)H lt (C_(6)H_(5))_(3)overset(*)(C)`B. `(C_(6)H_(5))_(3)overset(*)(C) lt (C_(6)H_(5))_(2)overset(*)(C)H lt (CH_(3))_(3) overset(*)(C) lt (CH_(3))_(2)overset(*)(C)H`C. `(C_(6)H_(5))_(2)overset(*)(C)H lt (C_(6)H_(5))_(3)overset(*)(C) lt (CH_(3))_(3)overset(*)(C) lt (CH_(3))_(2)overset(*)(C)H`D. `(CH_(3))_(2)overset(*)(C)H lt (CH_(3))_(3)overset(*)(C) lt (C_(6)H_(5))_(3) overset(*)(C) lt (C_(6)H_(5))_(2) overset(*)(C)H` |

Answer» Correct Answer - A `(C_(6)H_(5))_(3)overset(*)(C)` and `(C_(6)H_(5))_(3)overset(*)` is more resonance stabilised. `(CH_(3))_(2)overset(*)(C)H` (6 hyperconjugative structures) and `(CH_(3))_(3)overset(*)(C)` (9 hyperconjugative structures) are stabilized through hyperconjugation. Larger the number of hyperconjugative structure, greater the stability. Resonanace proves a better way to provide stability rather than hyperconjugation. Therefore stability order goes as `(CH_(3))_(2)overset(*)(C)H lt (CH_(3))_(3) overset(*)(C)lt (C_(6)H_(5))_(2)overset(*)(C)H lt (C_(6)H_(5))_(3)overset(*)(C)` |
