Question: Show the products you expect when each compound reacts with NBS with light shining on the reaction.

b)

The bromination reaction is the process by which one or more bromine atoms are added to a chemical. Halogination reaction includes bromination reactions. N-bromosuccinimide, also known as NBS (sourse of Br), is employed in this reaction as a reagent to aid in radical substitution.

A free radical is a molecule that lacks charge and has an unpaired electron. Free radicals are extremely reactive substances with a brief shelf life.

First, the reagent N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) that produces the bromine radical Br undergoes radical formation.

An allylic free radical is the end product of the formation of free radical in the alkene. The proposed mechanism to explain the observed products in the described reaction between an alkene and NBS.

The provided reactants result in the formation of two products. According to the Saytzeff rule, the allylic radical is quite stable and endocyclic double bond are significantly more stable than exocyclic double bonds.
