Which one of the following alkenes will react faster with under catalytic hydrogenation conditions?







Options
- A

- B

- C

- D

Correct answer
A. 
Step-by-step solution
Due to steric hinderence, hyperconjugation and heat of hydrogenation, reactivity of alkenes can be shown as:Related Theory
The relative rates of hydrogenation decrease with the increase of steric hindrance. In order of stability of alkene, most stable the alkene slowly it gives the product.
