Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Upon addition of 1 mol of Br2S to 1,3-cyclohexane, products 2 and 4 are formed:
- 2-bromo-1,3-cyclohexadiene (major product)
- 1-bromo-3-cyclohexene (minor product)
Products 1 and 3 are not formed as they would require the breaking of a C-C bond, which would result in a high activation energy and is unlikely to occur under the given conditions.
