Chapter 7, Problem 7.16P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The appropriate curved arrows and reaction products, for the given electrophilic addition step, are to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

In an electrophilic addition reaction, the species containing a nonpolar π bond, as part of a double or triple bond, uses the bond pair to form a bond with an electron deficient species, an electrophile. The product of each of these electrophilic addition steps is a carbocation that is highly unstable due to the positive charge and an incomplete octet.
