Chapter 12, Problem 30P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The major product obtained on treating the compounds in problem 29 with Br2 at 125°C should be identified.

Concept introduction:

Radical or free radical: unpaired valence electron of an atom, molecule, or ion is called as radical.

Bond strength is depends on the formation of the radical, if the radical is involving in resonance which is weakest bond strength.

Bromination:

Organic Chemistry, Books a la Carte Edition (8th Edition), Chapter 12, Problem 30P , additional homework tip  1

1-Methyl cyclohexane is undergoes radical bromination which forms 1-bromo-1-methyl cyclohexane therefore, bromination will occur where the tertiary radical is present. Because bromination will occur selectively in tertiary alkyl radical. (bromination reactions are more selective reaction)

Using reaction free energy to predict equilibrium composition Consider the following equilibrium: 2NO2 (g) = N2O4(g) AGº = -5.4 kJ Now suppose a reaction vessel is filled with 4.53 atm of dinitrogen tetroxide (N2O4) at 279. °C. Answer the following questions about this system: Under these conditions, will the pressure of N2O4 tend to rise or fall? Is it possible to reverse this tendency by adding NO2? In other words, if you said the pressure of N2O4 will tend to rise, can that be changed to a tendency to fall by adding NO2? Similarly, if you said the pressure of N2O4 will tend to fall, can that be changed to a tendency to '2' rise by adding NO2? If you said the tendency can be reversed in the second question, calculate the minimum pressure of NO 2 needed to reverse it. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. 00 rise ☐ x10 fall yes no ☐ atm G Ar 1
