Textbook Question
Chapter 10, Problem 19P
Explain the relative distribution of produces below using reaction energy diagrams for the hydrogen abstraction step that leads to each product. (The rare-determining seep in radical halogenation is the hydrogen abstraction step.) In energy diagrams for the two pathways, show die relative energies of the transition scares and of the alkyl radical intermediate char results in each case.
