Question

The reaction of C₆H₅–CH=CH–CH₃ with HBr produces:

विकल्प

• C₆H₅CH₂CH₂CH₂Br

• 

• \[\begin{array}{cc}
  \ce{C6H5-CH-CH2-CH3}\\
  |\phantom{.......}\\
  \ce{Br}\phantom{......}
  \end{array}\]

• \[\begin{array}{cc}
  \ce{C6H5-CH2-CH-CH3}\\
  \phantom{.....}|\\
  \phantom{......}\ce{Br}
  \end{array}\]

Answer 1

\[\begin{array}{cc}
\ce{C6H5-CH-CH2-CH3}\\
|\phantom{.......}\\
\ce{Br}\phantom{......}
\end{array}\]

Explanation:

Since, its carbocation is stabilised by resonance as well as +I effect.
