When 3-methyl-1-butene reacts with HBr, two alkyl halides are formed: 2-bromo-3-methylbutane and 2-bromo-2-methylbutane. Propose a mechanism that explains the formation of these two products.
Acid-catalyzed dehydration of 3-methyl-2-pentanol gives three alkenes: 3-methyl-1-pentene, 3-methyl-2-pentene, and 3-methylenepentane. Draw the structure of the carbocation intermediate leading to the formation of 3-methyl-2-pentene.
Reaction of hbr with 2-methylpropene yields 2 bromo 2 methylpropane. What is the structure of the carbocation formed during the reaction? Show the mechanism of reaction.
