The rate law for addition of Br2 to an alkenes is first order in Br2 and first order in the alkene. Does this information suggest that the mechanism of addition of Br2 to an alkene proceeds in the same matter as for addition of HBr? Explain.
Cyclopropane decomposes fairly rapidly at moderate temperatures whereas cyclohexane is quite stable. Why is this the case?
Using reactions, mechanisms, potential energy diagrams, labels, complete sentences,
and the associated concepts, explain the following reaction rate trend for the
hydrochlorination of alkenes (the addition of HCI). You may assume:
1) the alkenes are all the same higher energy; and,
2) the chloroalkane products are all the same energy; and,
3) the chloroalkane products are lower in energy than the starting alkenes (AGºrx is
negative for each reaction).
