MCQ
Electrophilic addition on a carbon-carbon double bond involves the intermediate formation of a more stable carbocation. This statement is called
  • A
    Saytzeff's rule
  • B
    Baeyer's effect
  • Markownikoff's rule
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: C.
Markownikoff's rule
c
According to Saytzeff rule "In dehydrohalogenation reactions, the preferred product is that alkene which has the greater number of alkyl groups attached to the doubly bonded carbon atoms." For example: The dehydrohalogenation of $2$-bromobutane yields two products $1$-butene and $2$-butene.

The Markownikoff's rule states that with the addition of a protic acid $HX$ to an asymmetric alkene, the acid hydrogen $( H )$ gets attached to the carbon with more hydrogen substituents, and the halide $( X )$ group gets attached to the carbon with more alkyl substituents.
