Allylic And Vinylic Position. Allyl form a stable carbocation because of the electron delocalization whereas vinylic carbocations are unstable as they lack p character. The allylic carbon atom is more reactive than normal. Return to glossary index.
Return to glossary index. Allyl is a name for this radical.
This molecule has four vinyl ic positions each marked with.
Allyl indicates a functional group with structural formula h 2 c ch ch 2 r where r is the rest of the molecule it consists of methylene bridge ch 2 in between the vinyl group ch ch 2 and the rest of the molecule therefore allyl group contains sp 2 hybridized vinyl carbon atoms and sp 3 hybridized allyl carbon atom. The allylic position is the one on carbon next to double bond. Allyl form a stable carbocation because of the electron delocalization whereas vinylic carbocations are unstable as they lack p character. It would be kept mentioned that allyl is the latin word that is used for the garlic allium sativum.
