Show how 2-methylpent-1-ene could be synthesized from 2-methylpentane.
Considering the relative stabilities of the resultant free radicals, identify which of the indicated carbon-halogen bonds would have a higher value of the bond dissociation energy.
i) Specify the hydrogen/s in the structure that is the easiest to remove for a bromine radical.
ii) Determine the number of secondary hydrogens.
Consider the radicals shown below:
