Alkanes is a chain of carbon and hydrogen with no pi bond and only sigma bond i.e neither their is presence of electronegativity difference between atom of (hydrogen and carbon ) & (Carbon and carbon ) nor they have pie bond which can show delocaliztion of electron to undergo reaction. So lower alkanes due to absence of reactivity factor do not show above type of reaction.
