(choose chapter or problem)

In Section 1.12 we discussed the effect that branching can have on the boiling point of a compound. In certain instances, branching may also affect how a molecule can react with different molecules. We use the term steric hindrance to describe how branching can influence reactivity. For example, greater steric crowding may decrease the reactivity of a CRC p bond (Org. Lett. 1999, 1, 11231125). In the following molecule, identify each p bond and determine which has a greater degree of steric crowding. (Note: This is not the same as steric number.)
