Chapter 10, Problem 10.62P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The reason as to why the addition of HBr to alkenes A and C forms the addition products B and D is to be stated.

Concept introduction: According to Markovinokov’s rule, the positive part of halogen acid attached to that carbon atom in C=C bond which carries maximum number of hydrogen atoms and the negative part of halogen acid will attach to that carbon atom in C=C bond which has minimum number of hydrogen atoms.

The steps followed by electrophilic addition reaction are stated below:

• First protonation of the alkene take place to generate the carbocation.

• The halide ion will attack on the carbocation to give the final product.

Compound W has molecular formula C₁4H18 and reacts with H₂ to form X. Oxidative cleavage of W with O3 followed by CH3 SCH3 affords Y. What is the structure of W?
Explain the characteristics of electrophilic addition of HX to alkenes ?
Explain the apparent paradox. Although the addition of one equivalent of HX to an alkyne is more exothermic than the addition of HX to an alkene, an alkene reacts faster with HX.
