3−3 -Methylhex-2-ene on reaction with HBrHBr in presence of peroxide forms an addition product (A). The number of possible stereoisomers for ' AA ' is ________.3 - Methylhex-2-ene on reaction with HBr in presence of peroxide forms an addition product (A). The number of possible

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

The hydrogen bromide addition in peroxides follows Anti Markovnikov rule. Anti Markovnikov  addition reaction is found to follow a free radical mechanism. The peroxide compound involved helps in the generation of free radicals. The Anti-Markovnikov rule defines regiochemistry in which the substituent is attached to a less substituted carbon instead of the more substituted carbon.

The reaction of 3−3 -Methylhex-2-ene  with HBrHBr in presence of peroxide, takes place as follows,

3 - Methylhex-2-ene on reaction with HBr in presence of peroxide forms an addition product (A). The number of possible

22 chiral carbons, here, so, total number of stereoisomers will be 2n=22=4{2}^{n} = {2}^{2} = 4
