Arrange the following compounds in order of increasing reactivity towards HCN : Acetaldehyde, Acetone, Di-tertiary butyl ketone, Methyl tertiary butyl ketone.

Answer» The order of reactivity is linked with the steric hindrance or crowding of the groups around the carbonyl group. Greater the extent of steric hindrance, lesser will be the reactivity. The increasing order of reactivity towards HCN (or `CN^(-)` ion) is : Di-tertiary butyl ketone `lt` Methyl tertiary butyl ketone `lt` Acetone `lt` Acetaldehyde.

Aldehydes and ketones ar specially susecptible to nucleophilic addition because carbonyl group is polar (due to electronegativity difference between carbon and oxygen) Positive charge on carbon makes it reactive towards the nucleophili. This addition is catalysed by acid. Reactivity of carbonyl compound towards nucleophilic addition increases with increases in the electron deficiency at carbonyl carbon. Thus, (-I.E.)groups increase while (+I.E.) groups decrease the reactivity of carbonyl compound. Carbonyl compounds show nucleophilic addition with :A. HCNB. `NaHSO_(3)`C. `(CH_(3)OH+HCl)`D. all of these
