Question:medium

Which of the following shows resonance but not hyperconjugation?

Show Hint

Resonance involves the delocalization of electrons, while hyperconjugation involves the interaction of electrons from C-H or C-C bonds.

  • Propene
  • Aniline
  • Toluene
  • Ethylbenzene
Show Solution

The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation


Resonance occurs in aniline (C$_6$H$_5$NH$_2$) due to the interaction between the nitrogen's lone pair and the aromatic ring. Hyperconjugation is absent because there are no adjacent C-H or C-C bonds available for this phenomenon.
