Answer

Step by step solution

01

Allylic bromination

In allylic bromination, alkenes react with the brominating agent N-bromosuccinimide in the presence of light, which gives a mixture of bromo-substituted products

02

Products

The anti-Markovnikov addition of the given compound A would give the following products:

Allylic bromination of A

Question: Although CH4 reacts with Cl2 to form CH3Cl and HCl, the corresponding reaction of CH4with l2does not occur at an appreciable rate, even though the bond is much weaker than the bond. Explain why this is so.

Question: As described in Section 9.16, the leukotrienes, important components in the asthmatic response, are synthesized from arachidonic acid via the hydroperoxide 5-HPETE. Write a stepwise mechanism for the conversion of arachidonic acid to 5-HPETE with O2 .

Question: Five isomeric alkanes (A–E) having the molecular formula C6H14 are each treated with Cl2 + hv to give alkyl halides having molecular formula C6H13Cl . A yields five constitutional isomers. B yields four constitutional isomers. C yields two constitutional isomers. D yields three constitutional isomers, two of which possess stereo-genic centres. E yields three constitutional isomers, only one of which possesses a stereo-genic centre. Identify the structures of A–E.
