(a)
Interpretation:
The major product for the given reaction has to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Electrophile: Electrophiles are electron deficient compounds which accepts electrons from nucleophiles that results in bond formation.
Electrophilic addition: It is a type of addition reaction in which the pi bond present in the molecule breaks as the electrophile approaches and results in the formation of product with sigma bond.
Carbocation: it is carbon ion that bears a positive charge on it.
Carbocation stability order:

Electrophilic addition: It is a type of addition reaction in which the pi bond present in the molecule breaks as the electrophile approaches and results in the formation of product with sigma bond.
Acid Catalyzed Hydration Reaction: The reaction involves breaking of phi bonds between carbon-carbon multiple bonds and addition of alcohol to more substituted position of carbon in the molecule.
First step is the acid donates proton to the
Then, the water is added to the given alkene through acid catalyzed reaction where the water gets added to the carbo cation finally, the removal of one proton from oxonium ion (oxygen with one positive charge) using water results in the formation of product.
Carbocation: it is carbon ion that bears a positive charge on it.
Carbocation stability order:

- Draw structure of substitution product(s) & major elimination productarrow_forwardWhy won't most primary alkyl halides react in Friedel-Crafts alkylation reactions? O Primary alkyl halides undergo methyl shifts under the standard conditions of Friedel-Crafts alkylation reactions, making them unreactive. Primary alkyl halides create primary carbocations which are too high in energy and too readily undergo rearrangement. Primary alkyl halides do not form a sigma complex after a nucleophilic attack since they connect at the primary carbocation site. Primary alkyl halides as a reactant violates one of the three standard limitations to Friedel-Crafts alkylation reactions.arrow_forwardpls also name the major product, thanks!arrow_forward
