MCQ
Among the given compounds, the correct dehydration order is :
  • $I < II < III < IV$
  • B
    $II < III < IV < I$
  • C
    $I < III < IV < II$
  • D
    $I < II < III = IV$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$I < II < III < IV$
a
Dehydration order is according to the stability of their intermediate. Benzylic carbocation is most stable due to resonance so $IV$ has the highest order. As allylic carbocation are more stable than $2^{\circ}$ carbocation, so the order is $III\, >\, II$.

Phenyl carbocations are least stable, so the order is $I\, <\, II\, < \,III \,<\, IV$.
