EXTRA Problem 16.3: Reactivity 4 plain 2020-04-03T12:44:41-07:00
1. When methylcyclobutane (below) is brominated in the presence of light, three different types of monobromination products can be formed (primary, secondary, and tertiary substitution). Draw the structures of all possible products. SOLUTION
1. Calculate the expected % abundance of each product, assuming the relative Br₂ reactivities of 1600:80:1 towards tertiary, secondary, and primary C-H bonds, respectively. SOLUTION
