What compromises were proposed in the colonies as alternatives to independence? why did the patriots reject them

The compromises that were proposed in the colonies as alternatives to independence were :

The stamp act . The partial Repeal of townsend act

This anger the Americans because we had no representation yet still being taxed

Explanation:

Part I. The canceling of the Stamp Act and partially the Townshend Acts. Parliament provided its answer to this question when it abolished the Stamp Act in 1766 by concurrently passing the Declaratory Act, which announced that Parliament could legislate for the territories "in all cases whatsoever"

Part II

The Americans became incensed because they had no description and were being taxed.

In the decade before the American colonies announced independence, no patriot enjoyed greater renown than John Dickinson. In 1765 he helped lead resistance to the Stamp Act, Britain’s first effort to get colonists to cover part of the mounting cost of a nation through taxes on paper and printed materials. Then, after Parliament revoked the Stamp Act but levied a new set of taxes on paint, paper, lead and tea with the Townshend Duties of 1767.

The proposed compromises were the repealing of the Stamp Act and partially repealing the Townshend Acts. The patriots rejected them because Declaratory Act was conceded after the repeal of Stamp Act and Declaratory Act still made British subdue colonies as well as after Townshend act partial repeal, came Tea and Coercive Acts (Boston harbor blocked, MA charter canceled, quartering and justice act founded) which coerced colonies even more.  

EXPLANATION:  

The Stamp Act of 1765

The Stamp Act of 1765 (short title of Duties in American Colonies Act 1765; 5 George III, c. 12) was a British Act of the Parliament which enacted direct taxes on British colonies in America and needed that many printed materials in colonies be created on stamped paper which was produced in London, bringing a stamp of income arises. Printed matter comprised legal documents, playing cards, newspapers, magazines, and many other paper types used in the colony, and it had to be purchased in British money, not in colonial paper money.

The Partial Repeal of the Townsend Act

March 5, 1770—the same day as the Boston Massacre, although news was slow at the time, and no party in the Atlantic was aware of this coincidence—Lord North, the new Prime Minister, filed a motion in the House of Commons calling for the removal of part of the Townshend Revenue Act. Although some in Parliament promoted complete revocation of action, the North did not agree, arguing that the tea duty must be maintained to declare "the right to taxing the Americans". After the debate, the Revocation Act obtained a Royal Assent on April 12, 1770.
