Question 21 In the standard electrophilic addition of a hydrohalide (H-X) to an alkene, what can be said about the stereochemistry of the product? O The stereochemistry will be anti, since the sigma bond will rotate once the pi bond is broken OThe stereochemistry will be syn, since the nucleophile will be generated on the same side of the alkene as the electrophile. O The stereochemistry will be random, since the carbocation generated is planar and attack can come from either side. O None of these, because it is not possible to generate a chiral center with stereochemistry through an electrophilic addition reaction

Dilot Q Search 3 R 10. It was observed that if a new, pure bottle of hydrobromic acid (HBr) was used for a hydrobromination of an alkene, the Markovnikov product was formed, due to carbocation stability. Add the curved arrows of this addition reaction learned in the alkene addition unit (chapter 8) to this reaction. Categorize the carbocation formed by substitution (methyl, primary, etc.). Br H-Br 6 HBr HBr ROOR of 6 It was observed that an old, impure bottle of hydrobromic acid (HBr) was used for a hydrobromination of an alkene, the anti-Markovnikov product was formed. This means that the mechanism of the reaction has changed to radical due to the introduction of a radical initiator and the outcome of the reaction is dictated instead by radical stability. The most common impurity in old bottles of HBr is peroxides (with the chemical formula ROOR). Draw the fishhook arrows for each of the radical mechanistic steps, categorize the radical mechanistic pattern of each step, categorize the…
