Electrophilic Addition Reaction (L-11): Mechanism & Alkenes | JEE, NEET, Boards

Welcome to Lecture 11 of our complete Reaction Mechanism Masterclass! In the previous lectures, we covered basic principles and substitution reactions. Now, we dive deep into the first of the major addition reaction mechanisms: the Electrophilic Addition Reaction. In this lecture, we specifically focus on Alkenes and Alkynes. You must master how electrophiles (E+) attack the electron-rich pi bonds of unsaturated compounds. This is where you stop memorising reactions and start understanding why bonds break and form. What you will learn in this lecture: What is an Electrophilic Addition Reaction (Definition and Core Concept)? The fundamental two-step mechanism. Why Alkenes and Alkynes are the perfect substrates. The formation and stabilization of the crucial Carbocation Intermediate. Don't forget to Like, Share, and Subscribe to the channel!
