Question

Draw the major product(s) from addition of HBr to the alkene below.

The image depicts a structural formula of a hydrocarbon, specifically an organic compound known as 1,3,3-trimethylcyclohexene. Here's a breakdown of its structure:

- **Cyclohexene Ring**: The core of the molecule is a six-membered cyclohexene ring, which contains one double bond. 

- **Methyl Groups (CH₃)**: 
  - There is a methyl group (CH₃) attached to the carbon adjacent to the double bond.
  - Two additional methyl groups (CH₃) are attached to the third carbon away from the double bond, making the compound 1,3,3-trimethylcyclohexene.

In this structural representation, the lines represent chemical bonds, and the intersection of lines represents carbon atoms. The molecules demonstrate basic hydrocarbon bonding principles and exemplify substitution on a cycloalkene ring.

Expert Solution
Introduction

Electrophilic addition reactions are those reactions in which an electrophile is attacked by a nucleophile and added to the alkene. In this type mechanism a non-classical carbocation is formed. And always anti addition will be taken place.
