Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The migrating carbon atom and curved arrow for migration are interpreted for the given carbocation rearrangement.
Concept introduction: The chemical transformation can be shown by the arrow pushing method in which the curved arrows show the movement of electrons or protons. A carbocation is one of the intermediates that can rearrange to form a more stable carbocation. The stability order of carbocation is:
Tertiary > Secondary > Primary
(b)
Interpretation: The more stability of carbocation (2) compared to (1) is interpreted for the given carbocation rearrangement.
Concept introduction: The chemical transformation can be shown by the arrow pushing method in which the curved arrows show the movement of electrons or protons. A carbocation is one of the intermediates that can rearrange to form a more stable carbocation. The stability order of carbocation is:
Tertiary > Secondary > Primary

- 4. Carbocations can undergo rearrangements to form more stable carbocations. A fourmembered ring can expand to a five-membered ring and a five-membered ring can expand to a six-membered ring, but a six-membered ring will not expand to a seven-membered ring.
