(a)
(b)
(c)
(d)
Ans. a
This addition is known as 1, 4-addition.
Mechanism This reaction can undergoes two pathways
Out of the two intermediates formed in two paths, the path B intermediate is more stable as it has more stable carbocation. So, a major product will be formed because of path B.
1, 2-addition product is formed at low temperature and will be less stable as the double bond is less substituted. 1, 4-addition is a thermodynamically stable product as the double bond is more substituted. As diene is in excess and HBr is limited in reaction, so diene cannot be formed. So option (b) is incorrect.

Q.61. An ‘Assertion’ and a ‘Reason’ are given below. Choose the correct answer from the following options :
Assertion (A): Vinyl halides do not undergo nucleophilic substitution easily.
Reason (R): Even though the intermediate carbocation is stabilized by loosely held π-electrons, the cleavage is difficult because of strong bonding. (2019)
(a) Both (A) and (R) are wrong statements.
(b) Both (A) and (R) are correct statements and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
(c) Both (A) and (R) are correct statements but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
(d) (A) is a correct statement but (R) is a wrong statement.
Ans. d
Due to partial double bond character of C-halogen bond, halogen leaves with great difficulty, if at all it does. Hence, vinyl halides do not undergo nucleophilic substitution easily. So, assertion is correct.
Intermediate carbocation is not stabilised by loosely held-π electrons because empty orbital, being at 90°, cannot overlap with p-orbitals of π bond. So, reason is wrong.
