Canonical structures of anilinium ion obtained by accepting a proton are given below. Choose the correct statements.
  1. Anilinium ion has two stable canonical structures I and III.
  2. II is not an acceptable structure because carbonium ion is less stable.
  3. Only I and III are acceptable aromatic canonical structures since II is non-aromatic.
  4. Anilinium ion has three stable canonical structures I, II and III.

Answer

(C) Only I and III are acceptable aromatic canonical structures since II is non-aromatic.
