Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: By using curved arrow to symbolize the flow of electron, the mechanism for the propagation steps that converts isopropyl benzene into the corresponding monobromide is to be shown and two possible termination steps for the process are to be described.

Concept introduction: Free radicals are uncharged molecules having an unpaired valence electron.These are typically highly reactive and short-lived molecules.

One possible way of determining the identity of an alkene, is to let itundergo an oxidative cleavage reaction in the presence of hot basicpotassium permanganate. You are given two containers said to containdifferent alkenes. Container A is marked as cis / trans‐2‐butene andcontainer B as 2‐methyl‐1‐butene. Explain by referring to the formation ofproducts, how you would verify the identity of the alkenes.
How are cyclopropanes synthesized from alkenes using carbene reactants and how is the mechanism understood to predict the products.  Also, what are the various methods for generating carbenes (including the preparation of Simmons-Smith reagents)
Substitutions on aromatic rings are generally carried out by electrophilic substitution, but for the synthesis of phenolic compounds and alkoxy benzene it is carried out by nucleophilic substitution, explain why this is so .
