Draw the structure of the expected organic product(s) formed in the following reactions including correct stereochemistry. If the product is racemic write both isomers or write racemic. Assume all reagents listed are present in excess unless otherwise noted. If no reaction occurs, state 'No Reaction'
Anti- Markovnikov addition also called peroxide effect or Kharasch - Mayo effect
The effect states that the addition of HBr to unsymmetrical alkene in the presence of organic peroxide (R-O-O-R) takes place in the opposite orientation to that suggested by Markovnikov's rule.
Anti- Markovnikov effect: -
In the presence of organic peroxide, when an unsymmetrical reagent is added to an unsymmetrical alkene, the negative part (X-) of the reagent gets attached to the carbon atom which carries more number of hydrogen atoms.
