Match the following. Figure
The correct match is $\text { A } \quad B \quad C$

  • A
    II I IV
  • Correct answer
    B
    III IV IV
  • C
    III I I
  • D
    II IV I

Solution

(A) Addition of HI takes place by the formation of $1^{\circ}$ and $2^{\circ}$ carbonium ion. $2^{\circ}$ carbonium ion being more stable will form major product, i.e. 2-iodopropane. Figure
(B) The reaction of bromine with 1-phenylethane proceed with formation of free radical. $2^{\circ}$ free radical being more stable than $1^{\circ}$ free radical, will form the product as 1-bromo-1-phenylethane.Figure
(C) Reaction of $\mathrm{HBr}$ to an alkene follows Markownikoff rule. So, the product will be 1-bromo-1-phenylethane.Figure
Note : Markownikoff's rule states that, electron rich component adds to carbon atom with less number of hydrogen atoms. Hence, the correct match is A-III, B-IV, C-IV. The reactions are :

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
