The product of the given reaction should be given.

Concept introduction:

Bromination of Allylic Carbons:

Organic Chemistry, Chapter 13, Problem 25P , additional homework tip  1

N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) is used for the allylic bromination through radical reaction. bromination of  allylicc carbon requires low concentration of bromine and low concentration of hydrobromic acid. If high concentration of bromine and high concentration of hydrobromic acid which leads to the formation of bromination in the double bond.

Organic Chemistry, Chapter 13, Problem 25P , additional homework tip  2

Bromination reaction starts with the homolytic cleavage of N-Br bond in N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) which creates bromine radical to initiate the radical bromination reaction.

NBS bromine radical removes the allylic hydrogen which forms hydrogen bromide and allylic radical in the first propagation step, the allylic radical is stabilized by the double bond in ring. This allylic radical reaction with bromine molecule and forms allylic bromide in the second propagation step which are shown above.

Bromination:

Organic Chemistry, Chapter 13, Problem 25P , additional homework tip  11

2-methyl propane undergoes radical bromination which yields the 2-bromo-2-methylpropane.because bromination will occur where the tertiary radical is present. (bromination reactions are more selective reaction).

Bromination will occur on tertiary radical than the secondary than primary radical, tertiary radical is more stable radical than the other radicals.
