The Markonvikov's rule is best applicable to the reaction(A) C2H4 + HCl (B) C3H6 + Br2 (C) C3H6 + HBr (D) C3H8 + Cl2 |
Answer» Correct option (C) C3H6 + HBr Explanation: Markovnikoc’s rule states that when a protonic acid (HX, where X can be any group with a higher electronegativity than hydrogen) is added to an asymmetric alkene (The groups on the two sides of the double bond are not the same), the hyfrogen atom is added to the carbon with the greatest number of hydrogen atoms while the X is added to the carbon with the least number of hydrogen atoms. For example CH3CH=CH2+HBr → CH3CHBrCH3 |
