3. 2-phenylpropene on acidic hydration gives
(a) 2-phenyl-2-propanol (b) 2-phenyl-1-propanol
(c) 3-phenyl-1-propanol (d) 1-phenyl-2-propanol
Answer : (a)
Answer explanation: Organic chemistry is based on living compounds, molecules,atoms and ions .Chemicals can be classified as Inorganic or Organic .Inorganic is non-living structures of chemicals while organic are living compounds or singular molecular structures.
Now Propene is CH3=CH2-CH3 ( Here '=' indicates double bond ; this means propene is jointly connected through methyl group (CH3) and Benzyl group (C6H5-CH2)
Now as shown above, CH3=CH2 can be written as C2H5 which is four carbon short of benzyl group (C6H6 is Benzene).Here we can see that CH3=CH2 is a covalent bond and non-ionic in nature .Hence ionisation can happen only on right,CH3 side of the above compound.
Hence hydration through acidic solution (which is acidic hydration) happens only on right side of the chemical structure ,that is CH3. Hence CH3 becomes CH2-OH ,which is hydroxyl group added to the CH3 replacing one hydrogen ion in the outer 's' orbit (s,p,d,f are the orbit shapes)
The following chart explains the organic chemistry configuration types in the right perspective
