Chapter 8, Problem 8.27P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

ΔH0 of the reaction has to be calculated and possibility of bromination at a vinylic hydrogen has to be discussed.

Concept introduction:

Halogenation of alkanes: The replacement of one or more hydrogen atoms by halogen. When alkanes is heated or irradiated with the light of specific wavelength, the alkyl halide are formed by radical chain reaction.

Radical chain reaction:

Bond dissociation energy is a measure of bond strength in a chemical bond.

It is a change in enthalpy of a homolysis reaction at absolute zero where a molecule is broken down into two free radicals.

ΔH0=BDE(broken)BDE(formed)
