Chapter 6, Problem 6.36P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The mechanism for given reaction has to be proposed.

Concept introduction:

Electrophilic addition reaction is an addition reaction where in a chemical bond, a $\Pi$ bond is Brocken and two new $\sigma$ bonds are formed, the substrate of an electrophilic addition reaction must have a double bond or triple bond.

Carbocation: The carbon ion that bears a positive charge on it.

Carbocation stability order:

The general carbocation stability order is as follows,

Nucleophile: donates pair of electrons to positively charged substrate resulting in the formation of chemical bond.

Electrophile: accepts pair of electrons from negatively charged substrate results in chemical bond formation.
