Which pair does not represent a pair of resonance structures ?

(I) structure and structure

(II) structure and structure

(III) structure and structure

(IV) structure and structure

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

(I) and (II) are allyl cation and allyl radical pairs. (III) is an allyl cation pair on a ring.

In (IV) the first cation is not conjugated to anything, and the two structures differ in atoms bonded, so it is not a resonance pair.
