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)Hoverset(ast)C=O, H_(3)Coverset(ast)CequivN, and H_(3)overset(ast)C–I`, the starred carbon atoms are electrophilic centers as they will have partial positive charge due to polarity of the bond.
