Bromination of an alkene by N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) in the presence of light or peroxide is a radical reaction and produces an allylic bromide. For the following bromination of 3-methylcyclopentene, select the allylic bromides from the set at the right that would be products of the reaction.
This problem is based on the concept of allylic bromination.
Allylic bromination of Alkenes can occur on reaction of alkene with N-Bromo-succinimide in presence of light.
The carbon adjacent to the double bond is called as allylic carbon. These carbons undergo allylic halogenations via free radical mechanism.
In the given molecule, there are 2 allylic carbons, hence more than 1 product will be formed.
The reactions with respect to the first radical position are given below:

Explantion: In a radical allylic bromination of alkenes with NBS reaction, why does allylic bromination occur instead of alkene bromination? Secondly, why does the more substituted alkene predominate if more than one alkene can form from such a reaction?
7 7) Alkenes can be selectively brominated in the allylic positions with NBS in CCl4. The reaction is selective for substitution at the allylic positions and the allylic bromide product usually is the one with the most substituted and/or stable alkene bond. For example, allylic bromination of 1-hexene produces only trans-1-bromo-2-hexene. (8 points) a. Write the reaction for the light initiated bromination of cyclohexene with NBS in CCIA. b. Write the mechanism using fishhook arrows to show bond making and...
Answer the following questions about radical halogenation QUESTION 1 Performing allylic bromination of an asymmetric alkene produces two regiochemical outcomes due to resonance, and two conformations (R) and (S) for each chirality center produced. This is further complicated if you make the mistake of using Br2 as your source of bromine radicals, as the addition reaction producing alkyl dibromides competes with the allylic bromination. Br2, hv ??? Categorize each of the compounds shown below as an [A] allylic bromination product,...
