The correct option is D CH2=CH−OCH3>CH2=CH−CH2−OH
Order of reactivity of alkene toward electrophilic addition is directly proportional to the stability of carbocation formed.
Electron releasing group and electron donating will influence the stability of carbocation. Thus, it will decide rate of reaction in electrophilic addition reaction.
Electron donating group will stabilise the carbocation formed.
Electron withdrawing group will destabilise the carbocation formed.
For (a), due electron donating group of −OCH3 the carbocation will get stabilized and due to electron withdrawing nature of −NO2 group carbocation gets destabilzed.
So,
CH2=CH−NO2<CH2=CH−OCH3
For (b), due to lesser number of electron withdrawing group,
CH2=CHNO2>CH2=C(NO2)2
For (c), secondary carbocation is more stable than primary so,
CH2=CH2 < CH3−CH=CH2
In (d) CH3−⊕CH−OCH3 is more stable than CH3−⊕CH−CH2−OH because −OCH3 is electron donating group and −OH is electron withdrawing group.
So, (d) is correct
