(a)
Interpretation:
Which H would most likely be abstracted by bromine radical
Concept introduction:
The H atom with the weakest bond and leads to the formation of stable ion is the most reactive H atom i.e. likely is abstracted by radical. The H atom attached to the carbon with more number of alkyl group form weaker bond
Answer to Problem 25.37P
The H atom which is likely to be abstracted by bromine radical
Explanation of Solution
The given compound is:
In the above compound there are three types of C atom; methyl, secondary and tertiary carbon atoms. Hydrogen atoms attached to respective carbons are also methyl H, secondary H and tertiary H atoms.
The H atom attached to the carbon with more number of alkyl group form weaker bond
Which H would most likely be abstracted by bromine radical

Answer to Problem 25.37P
The H atom which is likely to be abstracted by bromine radical
Explanation of Solution
The given compound is:
In the above compound there are four types of C atom; methyl, secondary, secondary benzylic and
The H atom attached to the carbon with more number of alkyl group form weaker bond
Here, the another benzylic radical could form by abstracting a H atom from the benzylic

Answer to Problem 25.37P
The H atom which is likely to be abstracted by bromine radical
Explanation of Solution
The given compound is:
In the above compound there are three types of C atom; methyl, allylic, and aromatic carbon atoms. Hydrogen atoms attached to respective carbons are also methyl H, allylic, and aromatic H atoms.
The H atom attached to the carbon with more number of alkyl group form weaker bond
Which H would most likely be abstracted by bromine radical
