Reactive Intermediates
In chemistry, reactive intermediates are termed as short-lived, highly reactive atoms with high energy. They rapidly transform into stable particles during a chemical reaction. In specific cases, by means of matrix isolation and at low-temperature reacti…
Hydride Shift
A hydride shift is a rearrangement of a hydrogen atom in a carbocation that occurs to make the molecule more stable. In organic chemistry, rearrangement of the carbocation is very easily seen. This rearrangement can be because of the movement of a carboc…
Vinylic Carbocation
A carbocation where the positive charge is on the alkene carbon is known as the vinyl carbocation or vinyl cation. The empirical formula for vinyl cation is C2H3+. In the vinyl carbocation, the positive charge is on the carbon atom with the double bond t…
Cycloheptatrienyl Cation
It is an aromatic carbocation having a general formula, [C7 H7]+. It is also known as the aromatic tropylium ion. Its name is derived from the molecule tropine, which is a seven membered carbon atom ring. Cycloheptatriene or tropylidene was first synthes…
Stability of Vinyl Carbocation
Carbocations are positively charged carbon atoms. It is also known as a carbonium ion.

Chapter 7, Problem 7.39P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The given carbocations are to be arranged in order of increasing stability.

Concept introduction: An electron deficient carbon atom on which positive charge is present is known as carbocation. An electron deficient carbon atom bonded to one another carbon atom is termed as 1° carbocation. Whereas, an electron deficient carbon atom bonded to two and three carbon atoms is known as secondary and tertiary carbocation, respectively. The electron deficient carbon atom of vinly carbocation is bonded to another carbon atom through a double bond. The order of increasing stability of carbocation is vinyl<1°<2°<3°.
