Hyperconjugation
Students will understand hyperconjugation and its stabilizing effect on carbocations and free radicals.
Key Questions
- Explain the phenomenon of hyperconjugation and its 'no-bond resonance' character.
- Predict the relative stability of carbocations and free radicals based on hyperconjugation.
- Analyze how hyperconjugation contributes to the stability of alkenes.
