Given below are 4 reactions. Two of these reactions will give product which is an equimolar mixture of the d and 1 forms. Identify these 2 reactions.
[A] 2- Methylpropene + \(\mathrm{HI} \rightarrow\) ---------
[B] But-1-ene + \(\mathrm{HBr} \rightarrow\) -----------
[C] 3-Methylbut-1-ene + \(\mathrm{HI} \rightarrow\) -----------
[D] 3- Phenylpropene + \(\mathrm{HBr}\) (Peroxide) \(\rightarrow\) -----------
- A B & C
- B D & B
- C A & D
- D C & A
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) B & C
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
For a racemic (equimolar d and l) mixture, the product must have a chiral center formed from an achiral reactant via a planar intermediate (carbocation). [A] 2-Methylpropene + HI \(\to\) Markovnikov addition gives tertiary carbocation \(\to\) 2-iodo-2-methylpropane…
