Chapter 8, Problem 8.28P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

A reaction roadmap have to be made for the reactions in the study Guide section of chapter 8 with the help of the previous chapters questions 6.54 and 7.29.

Concept Introduction:

Markonikov addition: The addition reaction of parotic acids to a different alkene or alkyne, the hydrogen atom of $\text{H-X}$ becomes bonded to the carbon atom that the greatest number of hydrogen atoms in the starting alkene or alkyne.

Anti-Markonikov addition: These rules describe the regiochemistry where the substituent is bonded to a less substituted carbon, rather than the more substituted carbon. This placed is quite unusual as carbon cations which are commonly formed during alkene or alkyne reactions tend to favor the more substituted carbon.
