Which one is most reactive towards Nucleophilic addition reaction?

1. Structure (a)
2. Structure (b)
3. Structure (c)
4. Structure (d)

Correct answer: Structure (a)

Solution

The reactivity towards nucleophilic addition depends on the electron-withdrawing groups and steric hindrance in the structure. Without specific structures provided, the most reactive compound is typically the one with the strongest electron-withdrawing group and least steric hindrance.
