Addition of HBr to allene (CH2=C=CH2) forms 2-bromoprop-1-ene rather than 3-bromoprop-1-ene, even though 3-bromoprop-1-ene is formed from an allylic carbocation. Considering the arrangement of orbitals in the allene reactant, explain this result.
a) When (Z)-3-methylhex-3-ene undergoes hydroboration–oxidation, two isomeric products are formed. Give their structures, and label each asymmetric carbon atom as (R) or (S). What is the relationship between these isomers?
1,3- Butadiene undergoes an electrophilic addition with Hbr. Complete the steps in the mechanism to produce the product.
