Question

11. Arrange the following radicals in order of increasing stability (where 1 -least stable and 4- most stable). Explain your reasoning. Sob to Explain your reasoning:

Answer 1

stability order: is primary radical so it is most unstable. ET is most stable as the radical can resonance with benzene ring. - CH₂ radical is least stable than - CH₂ salles later radical can undergo resonance with conjugate double bond and benzene ring double bond.
