Last Updated on October 27, 2022 by Chirag Gupta Phenol and phenoxide ion both are stabilized by resonance. In case of phenol, the lone pair on oxygen atom get delocalize over the benzene ring and this causes a charge separation, i.e., positive charge on oxygen atom while negative charge is on the benzene ring. This […]
