Which of the following has the maximum number of hyperconjugative structures?

  1. A (2-methylbut-2-ene)
  2. B (2-methylbut-1-ene)
  3. C (3-methylbut-1-ene)
  4. D (pent-1-ene)

Answer: A

Alpha hydrogens: 2-methylbut-2-ene ; 2-methylbut-1-ene ; 3-methylbut-1-ene 1; pent-1-ene 2. So 2-methylbut-2-ene has the most.
