Chapter 15, Problem 15.14P

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: The monochlorination product formed when given compound is heated with ${\text{Cl}}_{\text{2}}$ is to be drawn.

Concept introduction: Halogens react with alkanes in the presence of heat or light to form alkyl halides. This is known as halogenation reaction. This is a free radical substitution reaction. In this reaction, the halogen substitutes the hydrogen atom from $\text{C}-\text{H}$ sigma bond of the alkane.
