Solution
The correct option is DCH3CH2CH=CH2+HBr→ The reaction between 1-butene and HBr will result in the formation of a chiral centre in the product. The addition occurs according to Markovnokoffs rule. Br is added to C atom bearing less H atoms. The chiral carbon in the product is marked with asterik.. CH3CH2C∗HBrCH3
