Which of the following alkenes does not undergo anti Markovnikov addition of HBr ?
Options
- APropene
- B1 -Butene
- C2 -Butene
- D3-Methyl-2-Penten
Correct answer
C. 2 -Butene
Step-by-step solution
But-2-ene i.e CH ₃- HC = CH - CH ₃ is the symmetrical alkene among the given alkenes. Hence anti-Markovnikov addition is not observed in But-2-ene.
