Concept explainers
a.
Interpretation:
The compounds C and D should be identified.
Concept introduction:
Isomer: A molecule having the same molecular formula but with different chemical structure is called isomer.
Constitutional Isomers: A molecule having same molecular formula with different structural formulas (Difference in the connectivity of the molecule is called constitutional isomer).
Hofmann's Rule: It is elimination reaction in which the formation of
Saytzeff's Rule: It is elimination reaction in which the formation of olefin on most hindered or highly substituted position.
Radical Bromination:
2-methyl propane undergoes radical bromination which yields the 2-bromo-2-methylpropane.because bromination will occur where the tertiary radical is present. (Bromination reactions are more selective reaction). Bromination will occur on tertiary radical than the secondary than primary radical, tertiary radical is more stable radical than the other radicals.
(b)
Interpretation:
The compound D should be identified.
Concept introduction:
Isomer: A molecule having the same molecular formula but with different chemical structure is called isomer.
Constitutional Isomers: A molecule having same molecular formula with different structural formulas (Difference in the connectivity of the molecule is called constitutional isomer).
Hofmann's Rule: It is elimination reaction in which the formation of alkene from rather most unhindered (least substituted) β-hydrogen elimination.
Saytzeff's Rule: It is elimination reaction in which the formation of olefin on most hindered or highly substituted position.
(c)
Interpretation:
The compound C should be identified.
