Question
Chapter 14.4, Problem 7P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Among the chlorination or bromination product for 2,3-dimethylbutane, the reaction which gives a greater yield of 1-halo-2,3-dimethylbutane should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
- In a halogenation reaction, one or more halogen atoms are introduced into an organic compound. Generally, these reactions are initiated in the presence of light or heat.
- Radical or free radical: unpaired valence electron of an atom, molecule, or ion is called as radical.
- Bond strength is depends on the formation of the radical, if the radical is involving in resonance which is weakest bond strength.
