Chapter 4, Problem 4.32P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Using the Hammond’s postulate, the reaction which is faster among addition of HBr to

2-methylpropene and addition of HBr to trans-2-butene is to be stated.

The reason behind the assumption that the energy difference between the starting alkenes can be ignored is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Hammond’s postulate states that the structure and energy of the transition state, of a reaction, can be approximated using the structure and energy of intermediate. The energy of the intermediate should be relatively higher than the reactants and products for this estimation.
