Predict the product for each of the following reactions Hint/ Explanation:
- For the first reaction, HCl will add to the carbon atoms of the triple bond. The addition is stereoselective. A similar addition occurs with the resulting compound and HBr. Consider Markovnikov\'s rule for determining the regiochemistry.
- Internal alkynes undergo stereoselective hydrohalogenation via anti addition to give the (Z) product.
1.Explanation | Common mistakes | Hint for next step
The triple bond in an alkyne abstracts a proton from a hydrogen halide and forms an intermediate. Then, the chlorine ion attacks the electrophilic carbon atom and forms a halogenated alkene
2.Explanation | Common mistakes
The double bond in an alkene abstracts hydrogen from hydrogen bromide and forms a carbocation in a more substituted site. The hydrogen atom is attached on the right side carbon because that carbon atom contains a more substituted hydrogen atom which follows Markovnikov’s rule. Then, the bromine ion attacks a carbocation and forms a haloalkane as a product.
