The product of the electrophilic addition reaction between propene  C3H6  and hydrogen chloride  HCl  is 2-chloropropane  C3H7Cl . In this reaction, the hydrogen atom of HCl bonds to the carbon atom with the most hydrogen atoms in the propene molecule, while the chlorine atom bonds to the other carbon atom involved in the double bond. The resulting product, 2-chloropropane, has the following structure: CH3-CHCl-CH3.
