Interpretation Introduction

a) Methylcyclobutane

Interpretation:

The relative rate of radical bromination is 1:82:1640 for 1°, 2° and 3° hydrogens respectively. The structures of all the monobrominated products obtainable from the radical bromination of methylcyclobutane are to be drawn. The relative percentage of their formation is also to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

During radical bromination all types of hydrogens present in a compound are replaced by bromine to yield different products. The number of each type of hydrogen present in the compound and their relative rates of bromination are calculated seperately. The relative percentage of formation of a particular type of hydrogen can be calculated from the total rate of bromination of all types of hydrogens and that of the particular hydrogen.

To draw:

The structures of all the monobrominated products obtainable from the radical bromination of methylcyclobutane.

To calculate:

The relative percentage of formation of each monobromination product.

Answer to Problem 48AP

The relative percentage of 1°, 2° and 3° hydrogens in methylcyclobutane is 0.15: 23.1: 76.8.

Explanation of Solution

Methylcyclobutane has four types of hydrogens, one in methyl, a second on C1 to which methyl group is attached, a third one on C2 and C4 and a fourth one on C3. It has three 1° hydrogens, six 2° hydrogens and one 3° hydrogen. Hence four monochlorination products are possible.

The relative rate of radical bromonation of 1° hydrogens = 3 x 1 = 3.

The relative rate of radical bromonation of 2° hydrogens = 6 x 82 = 492.

The relative rate of radical bromonation of 3° hydrogens = 1 x 1640 = 1640.

Total rate of radical bromonation of all hydrogens = 3+492+1640 = 2135.

Therefore the relative percentage of

Radical bromonation of 1° hydrogens = 3/2135 x 100= 0.15%.

Radical bromonation of 2° hydrogens = 492/2135 x 100= 23.1%.

Radical bromonation of 3° hydrogens = 1640/2135 x 100= 76.8%.

Conclusion

Four different monochlorination products are possible by the radical bromination of methylcyclohexane. They are bromomethylcyclobutane(I), 1-bromo-1-methylcyclobutane(II), 1-bromo-2-methylcyclobutane(III) and 1-bromo-3-methylcyclobutane(IV).

Answer to Problem 48AP

Three different monochlorination products are possible by the radical bromination of 3-bromomethyl-3-methylpentane. They are bromomethylcyclobutane(I), 2-bromo-3,3-dimethylpentane(II) and 1-bromo-3,3-dimethylpentane (III).

The relative percentage of 10and 20 hydrogens in 3,3-dimethylpentane is 3.6:96.4.

Explanation of Solution

3,3-Dimethylpentane has two types of hydrogens, one in methyl groups and other in CH2 attached to methyl group. Hence two monochlorination products are possible. It has twelve 1° hydrogens and four 2° hydrogen atoms.

The relative rate of radical bromonation of 1° hydrogens = 12 x 1 = 12.

The relative rate of radical bromonation of 2° hydrogens = 4 x 82 = 328.

Total rate of radical bromonation of all hydrogens = 12+328 = 340.

Therefore the relative percentage of

Rdical bromonation of 1° hydrogens = 12/340 x 100= 3.6%.

Rdical bromonation of 2° hydrogens = 328/340 x 100=96.4%.

Conclusion

Three different monochlorination products are possible by the radical bromination of 3-bromomethyl-3-methylpentane. They are bromomethylcyclobutane(I), 2-bromo-3,3-dimethylpentane(II) and 1-bromo-3,3-dimethylpentane (III).

The relative percentage of 1°, 2° and 3° hydrogens in 3,3-dimethylpentane is 0.46:16.6:82.9.

Explanation of Solution

3,3-Dimethylpentane has four types of hydrogens, one in methyl at C1, another methyl groups attached to CH2, a third in C2 and a fourth in CH2. It has nine 1° hydrogens, four 2° hydrogens and one 3° hydrogen. Hence four monochlorination products are possible.

The relative rate of radical bromonation of 1° hydrogens = 9 x 1 = 9.

The relative rate of radical bromonation of 2° hydrogens = 4 x 82 = 328.

The relative rate of radical bromonation of 3° hydrogens = 1 x 1640 = 1640.

Total rate of radical bromonation of all hydrogens = 9+328+1640 = 1977.

Therefore the relative percentage of

Radical bromonation of 1° hydrogens = 9/1977x100= 0.46%.

Radical bromonation of 2° hydrogens = 328/1977x100= 16.6%.

Radical bromonation of 3° hydrogens = 1640/1937x100= 82.9%.

Conclusion

Four different monochlorination products are possible by the radical bromination of 3-methylpentane. They are bromomethylpentane(I), 3-bromo-3-methylpentane(II), 2-bromo-3-methylpentane(III) and 1-bromo-3-methylpentane(IV).
