Question

7. Consider the four possible types of carbonium ions: 3, , 1°, and methyl. Arr them in order of increasing stability (using generic structures, ie. R groups explain your reasoning (10 pts) ures, ie. R groups, etc.) and our possible types of carbenium ions: 3, 20, 1, and methyl. Arrange creasing stability (using generic structures, ie. R groups, etc.) and them in order of in explain your reasoning (10 pts). The mesylate, tosylate, and triflate are all good leaving groups. Draw the structure for each species and explain why they are indeed such good leaving groups (30 pts). 9.
