Question
Chapter 6.8, Problem 12P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
It is to be explained that the carbocation intermediate in the hydrolysis of
Concept introduction:
The stability order of carbocation is methyl < primary < secondary < tertiary.
The carbocation can be stabilized by rearrangement due to shift of hydride or methyl group of adjacent carbon.
The selection of hydride or methyl group shift depends on the stability of carbocation formed.
