Ques. 1NEET 2016 (Phase 2)

The compound that will react most readily with gaseous bromine has the formula

  1. C3H6
  2. C2H2
  3. C4H10
  4. C2H4

Answer

(1) C3H6

Solution

C4H10 (alkane) reacts with Br2 only by slow free-radical substitution.

Alkenes add Br2 (electrophilic addition) faster than alkynes, because the π electrons of C≡C are held more tightly by the more electronegative sp carbons.

Among alkenes, propene CH3-CH=CH2 has an electron-releasing CH3 group (+I effect and hyperconjugation) ⇒ richer π electron cloud than ethene ⇒ reacts fastest.

∴ C3H6.
