JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 11 - 9. Hydricarbon

Which one of the following alkenes when treated with \(HCl\) yields majorly an anti Markovnikov product?

  1. A \(H_2N -CH = CH_2\)
  2. B \(F_3C -CH = CH_2\)
  3. C \(CH_3 O -CH = CH_2\)
  4. D \(Cl -CH = CH_2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(F_3C -CH = CH_2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

In this case antimarkonikov product will be formed as major product because carbocation formed at a double bonded carbon having lesser number of \(H\) atom will be unstable due to presence of an electron with drawing group \((CF_3)\) attached to it.
