QUESTION:
Compound Y has molecular formula C7H12. Hydrogenation of compound Y produces methylcyclohexane. Treatment of compound Y with HBr in the presence of peroxides produces the following compound: Br Predict the products when compound Y undergoes ozonolysis.
ANSWER:Step 1 of 2
HBr with peroxides will give the anti-Markovnikov hydrobromination product from alkenes. That means that Compound Y will have an alkene between the carbon attached to the bromine and the adjacent carbon, giving the following structure for Compound Y.
