5. Assume that you have just successfully completed the second distillation in experiment 22 and are now holding your receiving flask, full of your product, in your hand. Briefly describe how you would go about performing a test for the presence of an alkene using bromine in dichloromethane. Be sure to describe what you would VISUALLYOBSERVE when the bromine reacts. Finally, write the curved arrow mechanism for the reaction occurring between the bromine and your product that leads to the new product formed, which you should also draw.

Provide a curved arrow mechanism for this transformation and comment on the observation that why 11 is the main product. Comment on how you would expect the UV absorption spectra of compounds 10 and 11 to differ, justifying your answer. Also, Isn't the product made thermically then why the reaction has 0 degrees as the temperature? thank you.
