Addition of HBr to allene (CH2=C=CH2) forms 2-bromoprop-1-ene rather than 3-bromoprop-1-ene, even though 3-bromoprop-1-ene is formed from an allylic carbocation. Considering the arrangement of orbitals in the allene reactant, explain this result.
1,3-Cyclohexadiene and 1,4-cyclohexadiene can be distinguished by reaction with ozone and then treatment with zinc. Draw the structures of the products produced by ozonolysis of the two compounds.
Cyclobutane reacts with bromine to give bromocyclobutane, but bicyclobutane reacts
with bromine to give 1,3-dibromocyclobutane. Account for the differences between the
reactions of these two compounds.
