Decane undergoes thermal cracking to produce compound D and
compound E with
equal number of carbon atoms. Compound E produces more soot when
combustion
reaction is carried out.
(a) Draw all the possible structures for compound D.
(b) Branched-chain compound E reacts with HBr to form major
compound F.
Compound F is optically active.
(i) Outline the mechanism for the reaction.
(ii) Draw the product formed when compound E undergoes
chlorination
reaction.
