a.
The chlorine adds so that the positive charge in the resonance contributor is on a secondary allylic
carbon. (If the chlorine had added to the other double bond, the positive charge would be on a primary
allylic carbon.)

b.
The proton adds so that the positive charge in the carbocation is shared by a tertiary allylic and a sec-
ondary allylic carbon. (If the proton had added to the other double bond, the positive charge would be
shared by two secondary allylic carbons.)

a.
Addition at C-1 forms the more stable carbocation because the positive charge is shared by two sec-
ondary allylic carbons. If the deuterium had added to C-4, the positive charge would be shared by a
secondary allylic and a primary allylic carbon.
b.
DCl was used to cause the 1,2- and 1,4-products to be different. If HCl had been used, the 1,2- and
1,4-products would be the same.
