Question
Chapter 9.3, Problem 6E
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.

When the kinetics of the reaction are measured, if the rate of the reaction is found to be dependent only upon the concentration of the alkyl halide the reaction is first order. The substitution reaction is thus termed SN1, and the elimination reaction is termed E1. These reactions are unimolecular and occur in two steps. The first step is rate-limiting and involves the loss of the leaving group to form a carbocation. In the second, fast, step the nucleophile adds to the carbocation in the SN1 reaction or elimination occurs to give an alkene in the E1 reaction. Because the carbocation is planar, the nucleophile can add to either face and therefore racemization is usually observed although solvent effects can influence this somewhat. E1 elimination follows Zaitsev’s rule and typically yields the most substituted alkene as the major product.
