Which of the following will be most stable diazonium salt RN_(2)^(+)X^(-) ?

Answer»

`CH_(3)N_(2)^(+)X^(-)`
`C_(6)H_(5)N_(2)^(+)X^(-)`
`CH_(3)CH_(2)N_(2)^(+)X^(-)`
`C_(6)H_(5)CH_(2)N_(2)^(+)X^(-)`

SOLUTION :Diazonium salt containing aryl group DIRECTLY linked to the nitrogen atom is most stable due to RESONANCE stabilisation between the benzene nucleus and N-atom. Diazonium ion act as a electrophile.
