On photolytic cleavage, the diazo compounds produce free radicals, followed by loss of nitrogen. <img class="img-fluid question-image" alt="image" src="https://cdn.tardigrade.in/img/question/chemistry/4d2e5458e361f343e7adc9c6b23a94b3-.png" />

Q. The following species generates a highly stable radical on exposure to $100 W$ bulb light. Which one of the following represents this stable radical?

$M e_{2} C • (CN)$

$C • H_{3}$

$C • N$

$M e_{2} C (CN) N = C •$
