Answer #1

During the treatment of bromine with alkane in the presence of light of heat, bromine preferentially repalces tertiary hydrogen.

In the ginve reactant third carbon is tertiary carbon and hence bromine replaces the hydrogen from this carbon to result the respective product as major.

2,2,3-Trimethylhexane ---- Br2/light or heat -----> 3-Bromo-2,2,3-trimethylhexane

B2 +HBR light (or) heat 2, 2, 3- Trimethyl hexane 3-Bromo-2,2,3-trimethylhexane 3 - Carbon
