Draw the major organic product of the regioselective reaction of 2-methyl-2-pentene with h2o in presence of h2so4. you do not have to consider stereochemistry. you do not have to explicitly draw h atoms. in your answer, draw the expanded structure for the acetyl group (ac). do not include lone pairs in your answer. they will not be considered in the grading.

2-methyl-2-pentanol is produced as a major product

Explanation:

Double bond in 2-methyl-2-pentene is protonated first by consuming a proton from .A carbocation intermediate is formed after protonation of double bond. Most stable carbocation is formed as a major intermediate.Here a tertiary carbocation is formed as a major intermediate. gives subsequent nucleophilic addition to the carbocation intermediate and produce 2-methyl-2-pentanol as a major product.Reaction mechanism and major organic product has been shown below.
