Q8 / 155 · WBJEE 2024 · Chemistry

The decreasing order of reactivity of the following alkenes towards HBr addition is Figure

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

Solution

Figure
Figure
Figure
Thus stability order of carbocation III > IV > I > II

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