If this diene were to be treated with HBr at -10C, where would the Br attach to the structure in the major product?

Expert Solution

Step 1

Introduction

Hydrobromination is a reaction in which bromine is added to an alkene or alkyne molecule, creating a new C-Br bond. This reaction occurs when a bromine molecule (Br₂) is added to an alkene or alkyne molecule in the presence of a Lewis acid catalyst, such as aluminum chloride (AlCl₃). This reaction can be used to create a variety of products, such as brominated alkenes, brominated alkanes, and bromo-alcohols. Additionally, the product of hydro bromination is highly dependent on the structure of the alkene or alkyne molecule.

The given compund is a alkene.

Find the major product and position where Br will make the bond with the Carbon(C)
