Question

How many mono bromination products are possible for 2-methyl propane?

Answer 1

There will be two possible products possible for mono bromination of 2- methyl propane.

1) 2-methyl propane has only two types of H atoms present on it i.e. Tertiary H-atom attached to the Central Carbon and 9 primary H-atoms attached to the Terminal Carbons.

2) Hence on Mono bromination, only one of the two given types of H atoms can be replaced giving to isomeric products.

3) The products would be 1-chloro 2-methyl propane and 2-chloro 2-methyl propane.

Answer 2

There are totally '2' mono bromination products are possible for 2-methyl propane

Explanation:

• The structure of 2 methyl propane is $CH(CH_3)_3$. Hence, the three carbon atoms on 3 methyl group attached to the central carbon atom are equivalent.
• Hence there are only two non equivalent carbon atom present in the compound 2 methyl propane.
• They are carbon number 1 and the carbon number 2 according to the IUPAC Nomenclature.
• Hence, on the mono bromination only two products can be possible. These are are "1 bromo 2 methyl propane" and "2- bromo 2- methyl propane".
