Question

Which of the following is most stable

Options

A.1-butene
B.1-pentene
C.2-butene
D.2-pentene

Solution

We can erxplain it on the basis of hyperconjugation.
(a) CH3 - CH2 - CH = CH2
(b) CH3 - CH2 - CH2 - CH = CH2
(c) CH3 - CH = CH - CH3
(d) CH3CH2CH = CHCH2
(e) Is most stable having largest no. of hyperonjuative stures as it has largest ni. of α - H - atoms. (hyperconjugative H)
