Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The compounds A and B formed in the given electrophilic addition reaction are to be identified and the reason is to be explained.

Concept introduction:

>

The alkene, on reaction with hydrogen bromide without peroxide, undergoes addition reaction in a way that the hydrogen is bonded to less substituted carbon of double bond and bromine is bonded to more substituted carbon of double bond.This is called Markovnikov's rule.
