The radical chain begins (initiation) with the photochemical cleavage of a Br-Br bond, affording two bromine atoms (Br ): Br-Br Br + Then, the propagation steps take place. First, the bromine atom reacts with the substrate to afford a resonance-stabilized benzylic radical. Represent this process and the different resonance forms of the resulting radical: СООН Br HBr + > H.

Alkyl halides can be reduced to alkanes by a radical reaction with tributyltin hydride, (C4H9)3SnH, in the presence of light (hv). Propose a radical chain mechanism by which the reaction might occur. The initiation step is the light-induced homolytic cleavage of the Sn-H bond to yield a tributyltin radical.

In the reaction given below, what type of reaction is used?
As we will learn, many antioxidants–compounds that prevent unwanted radical oxidation reactions from occurring–are phenols, compounds that contain an OH group bonded directly to a benzene ring.a.) Explain why homolysis of the O–H bond in phenol requiresconsiderably less energy than homolysis of the O–H bond in ethanol(362 kJ/mol vs. 438 kJ/mol).b.) Why is the C–O bond in phenol shorter than the C–O bond in ethanol?
When ethylbenzene reacts with bromine in a free radical halogenation, a small amount ofproduct that contains no bromine is formed. Show the mechanism of how the product isformed and the product. Explain why only a small amount of that product is formed.

Allylic bromination of alkenes is accomplished with the reagent NBS (N-bromosuccinimide). The reaction proceeds by a radical chain mechanism. For the following reaction: NBS Br light, CCI4 a Select the species that you would expect to react in the first propagation step and draw curly arrows to show the mechanism. Use half-headed (fishhook) curved arrows to show electron reorganization. When drawing bond formation by pairing of single electrons, terminate the arrows in a hotspot located to one side of a reacting radical. This hotspot is not associated with any structural feature.
