Predict the products of the following reaction The image depicts a chemical reaction. The starting material is isobutylene. It undergoes a reaction with hydrogen bromide (HBr) in the presence of tert-butyl peroxide ((t-BuO)₂) as a radical initiator. This setup suggests a free radical addition reaction, which typically results in the anti-Markovnikov addition of HBr to the double bond in isobutylene. The reaction involves the formation of a bromine radical that adds to the less substituted carbon atom of the double bond.

When HBr adds to (CH3)2C = CH2 under radical conditions, two radicals are possible products in the first step of chain propagation. Draw the structure of both radicals and indicate which one is formed. Then draw the preferred product from HBr addition under radical conditions.
All electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions occur via a two-step mechanism: addition of the electrophile to form a resonance-stabilized carbocation, followed by deprotonation by a base. In the step shown below, loss of a proton to form the substitution product was drawn using the resonance structure with the + 1 formal charge at the ortho position to the carbon bonded to the electrophile. Redraw the step shown with the other two resonance structures and use curved arrows to show how these other two resonance structures can be converted to the substitution product by removal of a proton with the base shown.

In free-radical substitution reaction of alkanes with halogens under uv light, the photolytic breaking of the halogen is the rate determining step. the formation of alkylradical is the rate determining step. the formation of halogen radical is the rate determining step. the abstraction of hydrogen from alkane by the halogen radical is the rate determining step
Alkynes do not react directly with aqueous acid as do alkenes, but will do so in the presence of mercury(II) sulfate as a Lewis acid catalyst. The reaction occurs with Markovnikov regiochemistry, so the OH group adds to the more highly substituted carbon and the H adds to the less highly substituted carbon. The initial product of the reaction is a vinyl alcohol, also called an enol. The enol immediately rearranges to a more stable ketone via tautomerization. Draw curved arrows to show the movement of electrons in this step of the mechanism. Arrow-pushing Instructions -X티 Hö: H-O -CH3 -CH3 H30*

Only one of the chlorine atoms in the molecule, 3,4-dichloronitrobenzene, will undergo nucleophilic substitution. Indicate which position will react and provide the expected product for the given reaction using reaction intermediates (resonance structures).
The chlorination of ethane produces many by-products. One by-product that forms in small amounts is 2-chlorobutane. Suggest a mechanism for the formation of 2-chlorobutane from the radical chlorination of ethane. (NOTES: intermediates can only have one radical, 2-chlorobutane should be the product of your termination step, any intermediate radical formed during the propagation phase can be used in the termination step)

The rate law for addition of Br2Br2 to an alkene is first order in Br2Br2 and first order in the alkene. Does this information suggest that the mechanism of addition of Br2Br2 to an alkene proceeds in the same manner as for addition of HBr? Explain.
Ethane reacts with chlorine (Cl2) in the presence of ultra-violet (UV) light, to produce 1-chloropropane (CH3CH2Cl) and hydrogen bromide (HCl). As shown in the equation below.
