Interpretation: The major substitution product that would result from reaction of
Concept introduction: Tertiary Haloalkane is a typical example for unimolecuar substitution. It proceeds via two-step mechanism. The first slow step that determines rate is the removal of leaving group from the substrate haloalkane and generates a carbocation. Since the rate is only governed by substrate alone and no other nucleophile or solvent it is termed as unimolecuar substitution. The final step is attack of nucleophile on carbocation generated and formation of racemic products.

- H Br Br2 CH2Cl2 H, Br Electrophilic addition of bromine, Brɔ, to alkenes yields a 1,2-dibromoalkane. The reaction proceeds through a cyclic intermediate known as a bromonium ion. The reaction occurs in an anhydrous solvent such as CH2Clɔ. In the second step of the reaction, bromide is the nucleophile and attacks at one of the carbons of the bromonium ion to yield the product. Due to steric clashes, the bromide ion always attacks the carbon from the opposite face of the bromonium ion so that a product with anti stereochemistry is formed.
