The reaction of 2,2-dimethyl-1-propanolwith HBr is very slow and gives 2-bromo-2-methylbutaneas the major product. x OH HBr 65°C Br Give a mechanistic explanation for these observations. Select all that apply. Stereoelectronic effects result in an anticoplanar rearrangement of the carbon skeleton. The mechanism results in a carbocation rearrangement in which a methyl shift occurs. The mechanism requires the development of an unstable positively charged species in the transition state. Steric hindrance prevents nucleophilic attack. The mechanism requires dissociation of a poor leaving group.
