The product formed in the following reaction (CH3)2C=CH2 + H-C(CH3)3 H?

1. CH3-CH(CH3)-CH2-CH2-CH(CH3)2
2. CH3-C(H)(CH3)-CH2-C(CH3)2-CH3
3. CH3-CH(CH3)-CH(CH3)-CH2-CH3
4. CH3-C(CH3)2-C(CH3)2-CH3

Correct answer: CH3-C(H)(CH3)-CH2-C(CH3)2-CH3

Solution

The correct option represents the product of the reaction where the alkene undergoes an addition reaction with the alkyl group from the second reactant, resulting in a branched structure that maintains the integrity of the carbon skeleton while adding the substituents appropriately.
