Question

Identify Z in the sequence. CH3CH2CH = CH2 xrightarrowHBr/H2O2 Y xrightarrowC2H5ONa Z (A) (CH3)2CHOCH2CH3 (B) CH3CH2CH(CH3)-O-CH2CH3 (C) CH3(CH2)3-O-CH2CH3 (D) CH3(CH2)4-O-CH3

CH3CH2CH = CH2 xrightarrowHBr/H2O2 CH3CH2CH2CH2Br xrightarrowC2H5ONa CH3(CH2)3OC2H5 In presence of H2O2, HBr adds in anti-Markownikoff’s way (peroxide effect).

Q. Identify $Z$ in the sequence.
$C H_{3} C H_{2} C H = C H_{2} H B r / H_{2} O_{2} Y C_{2} H_{5} ON a Z$

$(C H_{3})_{2} C H OC H_{2} C H_{3}$

$C H_{3} C H_{2} C H (C H_{3}) - O - C H_{2} C H_{3}$

$C H_{3} (C H_{2})_{3} - O - C H_{2} C H_{3}$

$C H_{3} (C H_{2})_{4} - O - C H_{3}$

$C H_{3} C H_{2} C H = C H_{2} H B r / H_{2} O_{2} C H_{3} C H_{2} C H_{2} C H_{2} B r C_{2} H_{5} ON a C H_{3} (C H_{2})_{3} O C_{2} H_{5}$
In presence of $H_{2} O_{2}, H B r$ adds in anti-Markownikoff’s way (peroxide effect).
