The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "Which of the following is not an example of +E effect?", we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the +E Effect The +E effect, or positive electromeric effect, occurs when there is a complete transfer of pi electrons in the presence of an electrophile. This effect is temporary and requires the substrate to have a double or triple bond. ### Step 2: Analyze the Given Options We need to evaluate each option to determine if it is an example of the +E effect. The options typically involve reactions of compounds with double or triple bonds. ### Step 3: Evaluate Each Option 1. **Hydrohalogenation of Propene**: - Propene has a double bond (C=C). - The electrophile (HX) attacks the double bond, leading to the +E effect. - Conclusion: This is an example of +E effect. 2. **Hydroboration of Propyne**: - Propyne has a triple bond (C≡C). - The electrophile attacks the triple bond, resulting in the +E effect. - Conclusion: This is also an example of +E effect. 3. **Formation of Acetyldehyde Cyanohydrin**: - In this reaction, the electrophile attacks the carbonyl carbon (C=O) rather than a double or triple bond. - Since there is no double or triple bond involved in the attack, this does not exhibit the +E effect. - Conclusion: This is NOT an example of +E effect. 4. **Hydration of Ethene**: - Ethene has a double bond (C=C). - The electrophile (H+) attacks the double bond, leading to the +E effect. - Conclusion: This is an example of +E effect. ### Step 4: Identify the Correct Answer From the analysis, the only option that does not demonstrate the +E effect is the **formation of acetyldehyde cyanohydrin**. ### Final Answer **Option 3: Formation of Acetyldehyde Cyanohydrin is not an example of +E effect.** ---
