Q56.The major product obtained in the photo catalysed bromination of 2-methylbutane is: (1) 1-bromo-2-methylbutane (2) 1-bromo-3-methylbutane (3) 2-bromo-3-methylbutane (4) 2-bromo-2-methylbutane

What This Question Tests

This question assesses the understanding of free radical bromination, where the more selective bromine radical preferentially abstracts hydrogen from the most stable (tertiary) carbon to form the major product.

Concepts Tested

Free radical substitutionStability of free radicalsRegioselectivity of bromination

6.21 Primary alkyl halide C4H9Br (a) reacted with alcoholic KOH to give compound (b). Compound (b) is reacted with HBr to give (c) which is an isomer of (a). When (a) is reacted with sodium metal it gives compound (d), C8H18 which is different from the compound formed when n-butyl bromide is reacted with sodium. Give the structural formula of (a) and write the equations for all the reactions.
