Q.
Which of the following carboxylate ions is the most stable?
Organic Chemistry – Some Basic Principles and Techniques
Solution:
Stability of carboxylate ion depends on two factors: Electronegativity of the halogen atom and number of halogen atoms attached. More the electronegativity of the halogen atom and more the number of halogen atoms more will be the dispersal of negative charge.
