The addition of HBr to 1,3-butadiene in the presence of a catalytic amount of peroxides gives the expected product from anti-Markovnikov addition of HBr to one of the double bonds (BrCH2CH2CH CHa) and another product as shown below. Propose mechanism that explains how this product could be formed via a free radical mechanism. (Note: An ionic mechanism for the addition of HBr is also a possible explanation for the formation of the product. This is not what I am looking for...
A. Double bonds that are connected by a single bond are said to be conjugated. For each molecule below, indicate how many conjugated double bonds are present in each molecule. HO OH bro HO B. One feature that distinguishes conjugated dienes from isolated dienes is that the C-C bond joining the two double bonds is unusually short. For each of the molecules in Part A, indicate which C-C single bond(s) might be shorter than expected. C. Some reactions of conjugated...
Electrophilic addition of HBr to alkenes yields a bromoalkane. The reaction begins with an attack on the hydrogen of the elect HBr by the π electrons of the double bond to give a carbocation. This step follows Markovnikov's rule with the electrophilic H adding to the sp2 carbon containing the most hydrogens, leading to the formation of the most stable carbocation (1° < 2° < 3°). If possible, a 1,2-shift of either a neighboring hydride or methyl group can occur...
Electrophilic addition of HBr to alkenes yields a bromoalkane. The reaction begins with an attack on the hydrogen of the electrophilic HBr by the n electrons of the double bond to give a carbocation. This step follows Markovnikov's rule with the electrophilic H atom adding to the sp2 carbon containing the most hydrogens, leading to the formation of the most stable carbocation (1°<2°<3°). If possible, a 1,2-shift of either a neighboring hydride or methyl group can occur prior to the...

a) There are several reagents that can be used to effect addition to a double bond, including: acid and water, oxymercuration--demercuration reagents, and hydroboration--oxidation reagents. Inspect the final product and select all the reasons why oxymercuration--demercuration was chosen to effect the following transformation instead of the other reagents. b) Complete the mechanism for the reaction by adding curved arrows. The reagents chosen for the transformation are: 1) Hg(OAc)2, THF, H2O and 2) NaBH4, OH
