Question
(CH3)3C+ is more stable than $(\text{CH}_3)_2\stackrel{{+}}{\hbox{C}}\text{H}.$ Explain why.
✓
Answer
It is due to more +1 effect (positive inductive effect) of three alkyl groups which are electron releasing groups, make it more stable than 2° carbocation which has two electron releasing alkyl groups. Secondly, (CH3)3C+ is most stable due to hyperconjugation.
