Organic Basics (GOC) · Carbanion stability inductive and resonance

Given below are two statements :

Statement I : On the basis of inductive effect, the order of stability of alkyl carbanions is CHX3X−\ce{CH3^-} >> CHX3−CHX2X−\ce{CH3-CH2^-} >> (CHX3)X2CHX−\ce{(CH3)2CH^-} >> (CHX3)X3CX−\ce{(CH3)3C^-}.

Statement II : Allyl and benzyl carbanions are more stabilised by inductive effect and not by resonance effect.

In the light of the above statements choose the correct answer from the options given below

  1. (1)Both Statement I and Statement II are correct
  2. (2)Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect
  3. (3)Statement I is correct and Statement II is incorrect
