Question
Chapter 9, Problem 5CTQ
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The given mechanism needs to be completed by adding two curved arrows.
Concept introduction: When the bromine molecule reacts with the C-C double bond, the addition of 2 Br to the double bond takes place. There is the possibility of the formation of both cis and trans products. In the cis product, both bromine atoms are at a cis position to each other and in the trans product, both bromine atoms are at a trans position to each other.

A student adds NBS to a solution of 1-methylcyclohexene and irradiates the mixture with a sunlamp until all the NBS has reacted. After a careful distillation, the product mixture contains two major products of formula C7H11Br. (a) Draw the resonance forms of the three possible allylic free radical intermediates.
2) Provide a detailed mechanism for the addition reaction shown below. State the regiochemistry
and explain why it's unusual.
Please be sure to include all structures (use line angle notation or perspective diagrams as
appropriate to illustrate the stereochemistry of the process), resonance forms, intermkediates,
transition states, curved arrows, formal charges, or lone pairs as necessary. Please don't cheat.
