The stablest radical among the following is

  • C6H5 - CH2C.H2

  • CH3C.H2

  • C6H5 - C.H2-CH3

  • CH3-C.H-CH3


C.

C6H5 - C.H2-CH3

The benzylic free radicals are more stable than alkyl free radicals because of the delocalisation of odd or unpaired electron on the benzene ring. Further, secondary free radical is more stable than primary free radical. Therefore, C6H5-C.H-CH3 is more stable than C6H5-CH2-C.H2.
