Question

Do not give handwriting solution.

Consider this reaction:
Br-Br
Br + CH3OH
CH3OH
H3CO
The mechanism proceeds through a first cationic intermediate, intermediate 1. Nucleophilic attack leads to intermediate 2, which goes on to form the final product. In cases that
involve a negatively charged nucleophile, the attack of the nucleophile leads directly to the product.
Intermediate 1
Br
Br
Intermediate 2
(product)
In a similar fashion, draw intermediate 1 and intermediate 2 (final product) for the following reaction.
+ Br₂ + H₂O
Br
OH
racemic mixture
+ HBr
• Pay attention to the reactants, they may differ from the examples. In some reactions, one part of the molecule acts as the nucleophile.
• You do not have to consider stereochemistry.
• Draw one structure per sketcher. Add additional sketchers using the drop-down menu in the bottom right corner. Separate intermediate 1 and intermediate 2 using the
→ symbol from the dropdown menu.
