Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Among the chlorination or bromination product for 2,3-dimethylbutane, the reaction which gives a greater yield of 1-halo-2,3-dimethylbutane should be determined.

Concept Introduction:

  • 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.
  • 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.
