The following reaction has been reported in the chemical literature and gives a single organic product in high yield. Write the structure of the product for the reaction of styrene with bromine in aqueous solution (ignore stereochemistry).

(a) 2-phenylpropene + HCl
(b) Styrene + Beomin in aqueous solution

Explanation:

The principle applied is the Markovnikoff's rule which states that when hydrogen chloride adds to a double bond, the hydrogen atoms join to the carbon that already has the most hydrogen atoms bonded to it. The rule wa postulated by a russian chemist known as Vladimir Markovnikoff.

In the markovnikoff's rule, there are sveral conditions that must be met, one of them is that no free radicals must be involved.

The reaction and the structure of the product is as shown in the attachment.

convalent bond :

is a chemical bond formed by the sharing of electron between 2 atoms.

it is the direct chemical bond between 2 atoms.

in bond formation atoms are involved here.

electrovalent bond:

is a chemical bond defined as electroststic attraction between 2 atoms.

it is the electrostatic attraction between 2 atoms.

in bond formation, ions are involved here.

hope it

and ur welcm
