Question

Which one of the following alkenes when treated with H C l yields majorly an anti Markovnikov product?, C H 3 O - C H = C H 2, C l - C H = C H 2, H 2 N - C H = C H 2, F 3 C - C H = C H 2

Markovnikov’s product is formed when a stable carbocation is formed on the more substituted carbon. In C F 3 - C H = C H 2 , the carbocation formed will be destabilized by strong - I group of C F 3 . Hence, the Anti-Markovnikov’s product will be formed.
