ALL SPACES ARE THE SAME OPTIONS

Given the discussion in the previous question, identify which reaction pathway correctly represents the first addition of an alkyl carbocation (R+) to Anisole. is the correct pathway due to hism (i.e. the red arrows) will be very important in this laboratory. It is strongly recommended that electronics Pathway One sterics and electronics Pathway Two sterics Pathway Three Pathway One Pathway Two R Pathway Three R R Н R

Answer 1
