The reaction begins with an attack on the hydrogen of the electrophilic HBr by the a electrons of the double bond to give a carbocation. This step follows Markovnikov's rule with the electrophilic H atom adding to the sp2 carbon containing the most hydrogens, leading to the formation of the most stable carbocation (1°<2°<3°). If possible, a 1,2-shift of either a neighboring hydride or methyl group can occur prior to the last step in order to form a more stable carbocation. In the final step of the reaction, nucleophilic bromide adds to the carbocation to give the neutral product. Draw curved arrows to show the movement of electrons in this step of the mechanism.

When toluene is treated with sulfuric and nitric acids under special conditions, three nitro (NO2) groups are substituted for hydrogens at the 2, 4 and 6 positions on the ring (the next section discusses why the 2, 4, and 6 positions are substituted). The product is a highly explosive substance called 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene. This subastance is commonly known by a three letter name. What is it?
Alcohols are important for organic synthesis, especially in situations involving alkenes. The alcohol might be the desired product, or the OH group might be transformed into another functional group via halogenation, oxidation, or perhaps conversion to a sulfonic ester derivative. Formation of an alcohol from an alkene is particularly powerful because conditions can be chosen to produce either the Markovnikov or non-Markovnikov product from an unsymmetrical alkene. Using your reaction roadmap as a guide, show how to convert 4-methyl-1-pentene into 5-methylhexanenitrile. You must use 4-methyl-1-pentene and sodium cyanide as the source of all carbon atoms in the target molecule. Show all reagents needed and all molecules synthesized along the way.
