Why is a ylid a stable nucleophile? Select all that apply. Group of answer choices The proximity of the positively charged phosphorous and negatively charged carbon stabilizes the charges. It is a stable Arrhenius base. Inductive effects and resonance stabilize the negative charge. It isn't stable, it only forms transiently.

    1) The proximity of the positively charged phosphorous and negatively charged carbon stabilizes the charges.

    2) Inductive effects and resonance stabilize the negative charge

    Explanation:

    both atoms have full octets of electrons (I. e Carbon and say phosphorus). The result can be viewed as a structure in which two adjacent atoms are connected by both a covalent and an ionic bond; normally written X+-Y-. Ylides are thus 1,2-dipolar compounds, and a subclass of zwitterions
