Question

2-phenyl propene on acidic hydration gives, (A) 2-phenyl-2-propanol (B) 2-phenyl-1-propanol (C) 3-phenyl-1-propanol (D) 1-phenyl-2-propanol

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Acidic hydration of 2-phenyl propene follows electrophilic reaction mechanism forming an intermediate 3° carbocation (more stable), thereby forming 2-phenyl-2-propanol.
