Question

Explain Markovnikovs addition rule with suitable example​

Answer 1

Answer:

Markonikoff's rule: When an unsymmetrical reagent is added to an unsymmetrical alkene, the negative part of the reagent is attached to the unsaturated C atom having less number of hydrogen atoms. Thus, when HBr is added to propene, isopropyl bromide is obtained as major product. CH3−CH=CH2+HBr→CH3−CH∣ Br −CH3.
