Question
The following carbocation is stabilized by the interaction of the empty $p$ orbital with
Options
A.empty $\sigma^{*}$ and filled $\pi$ orbitals
B.empty $\sigma^{*}$ and empty $\pi^{*}$ orbitals
C.filled $\sigma$ and filled $\pi$ orbitals
D.empty $\sigma$ and empty $\pi^{*}$ orbitals
Solution
Sol. [Key Concept: Carbocation stabilised by hyperconjugation/resonance]
Due to resonance, it is stabilized by filled $\pi$ orbital.
Due to hyperconjugation, it is stabilized by filled $\sigma$ orbitals.
