Identify electrophilic centre in the following :
(1) `CH_3CH=O`
(2) `CH_3-CN`
(3) `CH_3 I`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Among `CH_3 overset (darr) CH = O, H_3 C - overset (darr) C -= N, and H_3 overset (darr) C - I`, the arrow-marked `C` atoms are electrophilic centres, as they will have partical charge due to the polarity of bond.
