2,2-dimethylpropane only reacts with bromine in a solvent of CCl4. The presence of sunlight is required in this reaction. Specify the type of reaction and show the complete mechanism for the reaction occurred. This is a free radical halogenation, however I don't understand what it meant by "only recats with bromine in a solvent of CCL4"... can I have some explanation :(

Under strongly acidic conditions, hexane is observed to undergo an isomerization process, during which it is converted into branched alkanes having the same molecular formula as hexane (C6H₁4). The rate at which each constitutional isomer is produced is related to the type of acid that is used in the reaction and the degree of mixing that occurs during the reaction (J. Chem. Soc., Perkins Trans. 2 1999, 12, 2715-2718). Step 1 Draw a bond-line structure of hexane. Draw Your Solution There are four branched isomers of hexane. Draw bond-line structures of all four of its isomers. Draw Your Solution
