The major product of acid catalysed hydration reaction of 3,3-dimethylbut-1-ene is:
- A 2,2-dimethylbutan-1-ol
- B 2,3-dimethylbutan-2-ol
- C 3,3-dimethylbutan-2-ol
- D 3,3-dimethylbutan-1-ol
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) 2,3-dimethylbutan-2-ol
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The acid-catalyzed hydration of 3,3-dimethylbut-1-ene proceeds via the formation of a carbocation intermediate. The reaction begins with the protonation of the double bond to form the more stable carbocation. Protonation of the terminal carbon of 3,3-dimethylbut-1-ene yields a…
