Hyper conjugation stabilises the carbocation
Greater the number of alkyl groups attached to a positively charged
carbon atom, the greater is the hyper conjugation interaction and
stabilisation of the cation.

The relative stability of carbocations is in the order:

Here tertiary carbocation has 9, isopropyl has 6, ethyl carbocation


has 3 and methyl carbocation has zero hyper conjugative structures.

Conformations
Conformation is a phenomenon in which the different structures are
obtained due to free rotation about the C-C sigma bond.

The different structures obtained are called


Conformers / Rotamers / Rotational isomers.

Staggered Conformation : The hydrogens of the two carbon atoms


are staggered with respect to one other. As a result they are maximum
distance apart and have minimum repulsion between them.

Eclipsed Conformation : The hydrogens of one carbon atom are


directly behind those of the other. Consequently,the repulsion in these
atoms is maximum.
Any conformations between eclipsed and staggered conformations are
called skew conformations.
To represent these conformations two simple ways are used;

Relative stability of Conformations

The repulsive interaction between the electron clouds is


called Torsional strain.

The staggered form has least tortional strain &


maximum stability.

The Eclipsed form has maximum torsional strain &


minimum stability.

Geometrical isomerism
Geometrical isomerism arising due to the restricted rotation about
carbon-carbon double bond.

There are two types of geometrical isomers


- cis isomer
- trans isomer

Isomer in which identical atoms or groups are on the same side of


the double bond is called cis isomer.

If the identical groups or atoms are on the opposite side of the


double bond, it is called trans isomer.

Markownikoff’s rule :
The rule states that
“when an unsymmetrical reagent is added to an unsymmetrical
alkene, the negative part of the adding molecule gets attached to
the carbon containing lesser number of hydrogen atoms”.
Peroxide effect / Kharasch effect :
In presence of peroxide, addition of HBr to unsymmetrical alkenes takes
place against Markovnikov rule.
This is known as peroxide or Kharash effect or anti-Markovnikov addition
reaction.
Here the negative part goes to more hydrogenated carbon atom.

AROMATIC HYDROCARBONS (ARENES)
Structure of Benzene
The molecular formula of benzene is C₆H₆.
August Kekulé proposed the following structure for benzene having cyclic
arrangement of six carbon atoms with alternate single and double bonds.

(A) (B) Resonance Structure


Aromaticity
Aromaticity is defined by a rule called ‘Huckel rule’.

According to this rule, “cyclic, planar, conjugated systems containing


(4n+2) π electrons are aromatic”. n may be 1,2,3,....

For benzene n = 1, so it should contain 6 delocalised π electrons.


If n = 2, the no. of delocalised π electrons =10 and so on.
