Although the carbonyl absorption of cyclic ketones generally shifts to higher wavenumber with decreasing ring size, C=O of cyclopropenone absorbs at lower wavenumber in its roman IR spectrum than the C=O of cyclohex-2-enone. Explain this observation by using the principles of aromaticity learned in Chapter 17.

Rank the following compounds in order of increasing reactivity towards nucleophilic attack.
