The reaction of HCI with 1-pentene produces only one product,
2-chloropentane. Why does this product form instead of
1-chloropentane?
H+ and C know what the "EL-NM" rule is and dutifully
comply with it.
B. H+ bonds to the C-1 alkene carbon in the first step, forming
the more stable carbocation, with (+) charge on C-2,
followed by bonding of Cl nucleophile to positively charged
C-2.
C. There is less steric hindrance if Cl binds to C-2 and H+
bonds to C-1.
D. Cl bonds to the C-2 alkene carbon in the first step, forming
the more stable carbon anion with (-) charge on C-1,
followed by bonding of H* electrophile to (-) charged C-1.
