- Butene (CH2CHCH2CH3) reacts with hydrogen chloride (HCl) at room temperature. Draw the displayed formulae of the products formed in this reaction. State the name of the above reaction mechanism. Alkene Propene reacts with hydrogen bromide (HBr) at room temperature to produce, 1-bromopropane and 2-bromopropane. H2C=CHCH3 + HBr → CH2(Br)CH2CH3 + CH3CH(Br)CH3 Draw out the reaction mechanism of the reaction between propene and hydrogen bromide to produce 2-bromopropane. Use curly arrows to show the movement of electrons. The description should be detailed and must include the type of bond fission that takes place. You may sketch and insert suitable diagrams to aid your description if you wish. Referring to the above mechanism, explain why two products…arrow_forwardDraw the organic product you would expect to isolate from the nucleophilic substitution reaction between the molecules shown.
