Mark Yourself Question
  1. Grab a piece of paper and try this problem yourself.
  2. When you're done, check the "I have answered this question" box below.
  3. View the solution and report whether you got it right or wrong.
The addition of HBr to styrene (PhCHCH2, below) yields two products, A and B. One product is greatly favoured. Show the formation of A and B using a reaction energy diagram. Use a single reaction energy diagram for both reactions, be sure to label any starting materials, intermediates and products. Rationalize the product distribution with the diagram (i.e. why is one product favoured over the other?).
