Step 1: Understanding the Reaction.
The question asks for the structure of a compound undergoing electrophilic addition with halogens. Electrophilic addition involves an electron-deficient species (like a halogen) attacking a double bond, which opens up the bond and adds the halogen across it.
Step 2: Analyzing the Options.
- (A) \(\text{C}_6\text{H}_6 \) (benzene) does not undergo electrophilic addition with halogens under normal conditions because it requires special conditions like halogenation using a catalyst.
- (B) \(\text{CH}_3\text{Cl}\) is a simple alkyl halide, but it does not undergo electrophilic addition.
- (C) \(\text{C}_6\text{H}_5\text{Cl}_2\) is a chlorinated benzene, which undergoes substitution reactions, not electrophilic addition.
- (D) \(\text{CH}_3\text{CCl}_3\) represents a chloroalkane that can undergo electrophilic addition, fitting the conditions.
Step 3: Conclusion.
The correct answer is (D) \(\text{CH}_3\text{CCl}_3\) as it fits the conditions for an electrophilic addition reaction with halogens.
