Electrophilic addition reaction is addition of electrophile to electron poor carbon by breaking down of pi bond and forming new sigma bond.
Electrophiles are these ion or atom that have attraction toward electron rich parts. Hence, electrophiles must have to be electron deficient and positive nature ion.
The mechanism of electrophilic addition reaction are in following steps
Pi bond attacking by electrophiles and breaking down and forming a new sigma bond. This is called electrophiles attack.
Leaving group that exist in solution from that electrophiles was attached, which is negativity charged in nature is nucleophile.
Electrophilic addition reaction follows Marconicov rule. Electrophiles will add to this carbon between two carbon with pi bond that have more hydrogen attached.
Reaction rate depends both on electrophiles and alkyle chain attached with carbon.
HF reaction with alkene is slowly than HI
The carbon attached with more alkyle and more complicated alkyle
