Question

Which of the following alkenes is least reactive towards anionic polymerization?
  1. CH2 = CHCH3
  2. CH2 =CF2
  3. CH2 =CHCN
  4. CH2 =CHC6H5

A
CH2 = CHCH3
B
CH2 =CF2
C
CH2 =CHC6H5
D
CH2 =CHCN
Solution
Verified by Toppr

CF2,CN and C6H5 will stabilised the negative charge that will appear after the breaking of the double bond,
but the CH3 group only exaggerates +I effect and unstabilised the negative charge, that's why the (A) alkene will be least reactive towards anionic polymerisation.

So the correct option is [A].
