Question

$CH_3 - CH = CH_2+NOCl \longrightarrow P;$ Identify the adduct.

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

Answer 2

The correct answer is A
$NOCl$ undergo electrophilic addition on alkene as: $NOCl \longrightarrow ^+N=0+Cl^-$
When $NOCl$, an asymmetric reagent, is used to add across a $C=C$ double bond, it follows the Markonikov rule, where the chlorine atom, which is the negative part of $NOCl$, becomes attached to the carbon atom that is more highly substituted.
