Chapter 14, Problem 14P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The major product obtained by the reaction of excess of given compound with bromine in presence of light at room temperature 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.

In a halogenation reaction, one or more halogen atoms are introduced into an organic compound. Generally, these reactions are initiated in the presence of light or heat.

Which of the reaction conditions could afford the following transformation?
Two products are possible when pent-2-ene is treated with HBr. Write the structures of the possible products, and explain why they are made in about equal amounts.
Compounds X has the formula C7H15Cl; Y is C7H15Br.X undergoes base-promoted E2 elimination to give a single alkene product Z. Y likewise reacts under similar conditions to give a single alkene product that is isomeric with ZCatalytic hydrogenation of Z affords 3-ethylpentane.X readily reacts in SN2 fashion with sodium iodide in acetone. Y does not undergo a similar SN2 reaction. Propose structures for X and Y.
