Chapter 3, Problem 48P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The type of reaction of methane and chlorine should be identified.

Concept introduction: The monochlorination performed with ultraviolet light proceeds via radical chain mechanism. Chlorine transforms CH4 into chloromethane as the major halogenated product with variety of side products due to various possibility of chain termination. The chloromethane formed can undergo another cycle of radical mechanism to yield dichloromethane.

The fundamental radical chain mechanism is summarized in the illustration below:
