Assertion (A) Propene on addition with hydrogen bromide in the presence of peroxide gives 1-bromopropane as the major product.
Reason (R) l-bromopropane is the major product because it is formed through the stable carbocation.
The correct answer is
- A (A) and (R) are correct, (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
- B (A) and (R) are correct but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
- C (A) is correct but (R) is not correct
- D (A) is not correct but (R) is correct
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) (A) is correct but (R) is not correct
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Addition of \(\mathrm{HBr}\) to propene is an example of an electrophilic addition reaction. The electrophile attacks the double bond to form \(1^{\circ}\) and \(2^{\circ}\) carbocations, and since \(2^{\circ}\) carbocation is more stable the major product of the reaction is…
