Assertion: Addition of one equivalent of HCl to 1,3-butene at 804oC gives 3- chloro- 1 – butene as a major product.
Reason: 3- chloro- 1- butene is a kinetically controlled product.
A. Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
B. Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.

Hint: As per markovnikov’s rule at lower temperature kinetically controlled products are going to form as the major products. At higher temperature the reaction is going to favor the formation of thermodynamically controlled products.

Complete answer:
- In Assertion it is given that Addition of one equivalent of HCl to 1,3-butene at 80 oC gives 3- chloro- 1 – butane as a major product. The chemical reaction is as follows.

- Yes it is true at lower temperature 1,3-butadiene undergoes follows markovnikov’s rule and produces kinetically controlled product as the major product.
- At higher temperature (100 oC or above) the reaction favors the formation of thermodynamically controlled products as the major product and the chemical reaction is as follows.

- Therefore Assertion is the correct statement.
- Coming to reason 3- chloro- 1- butane is a kinetically controlled product. Yes it suits the assertion.
- Therefore both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion

So, the correct option is A.

Note:
In thermodynamically controlled reaction temperature is going to play a big role and produces a product which is different from kinetically controlled reaction.
The product formed in the reaction of 1,3-butadiene with HCl under kinetically controlled condition is 3- chloro- 1 – butene.
The product formed in the reaction of 1,3-butadiene with HCl under thermodynamically controlled condition is 1- chloro- 3 – butene.
