Question

Draw a structural formula for the intermediate in the following reaction:

• You do not have to consider stereochemistry.
• You do not have to explicitly draw H atoms.
• Do not include counter-ions, e.g., Na⁺, I^-, in your answer.

CH3 CHCH2CH3 CH2Cl2 + Br2 CH3

Answer 1

Chich is more stable than given thoot CH3 ECHCH2CH3 et Bra CH₂Cl2 Ć H3 Sebastian CH3 TCHCH₂CH3 Mechanism: CH3 Bor CH3 ECHCH₂CH3 CH3 st S+ CHCH₂CH3 concen 1 CH3 Br Bri intermediate Bri By chz (product) CHCH₂CH3 CH3 (Anti addition of bromine con atom) city BY 30 or tertiary since, Carbon (C-2) is Carbocation secondary carbocation or 2 at Brion which act as nucleophile attack Carbon-2 (6-2) ox 30 Carbocation. Carton 3.

Hence, Structuras Formula of intermediate is аЅ ". the CH3. St S+, CHCH₂CH3 СН3 33
