JEE Advance - Chemistry (2009 - Paper 2 Offline - No. 3)
In the following carbocation, H/CH$$_3$$ that is most likely to migrate to the positively charged carbon is :
CH$$_3$$ at C-4
H at C-4
CH$$_3$$ at C-2
H at C-2
Explanation
The hydride shift from C-2 will lead to a resonance stabilized secondary carbocation (conjugated with oxygen).
