The stability of carbocation {1^o},{2^o},{3^o} and benzyl carbocation is of order:A) {1^o} > {2^o} > {3^o} > benzylB) benzyl > {3^o} > {2^o} > {1^o}C) {3^o} > {2^o} > {1^o} > benzylD) {3^o} > benzyl > {2^o} > {1^o}
The stability of carbocations generally follows the order:
tertiary > secondary > primary > methyl
Benzyl carbocation is a special case where the positive charge is delocalized onto the benzene ring, providing additional stability compared to a typical tertiary carbocation.
So, the correct order of stability is:
D) {3^o} > benzyl > {2^o} > {1^o}
