Question: Name the following alkyl halides:

The major product of the reaction of methylenecyclohexane with N-bromosuccinimide is 1-(bromomethyl)cyclohexene. Explain.

Question: The syntheses shown here are unlikely to occur as written. What is
wrong with each?

Reaction 1

Reaction 2

Alkylbenzenes such as toluene (methylbenzene) react with NBS to give
products in which bromine substitution has occurred next to the aromatic ring (the benzylic position). Explain, based on the bond dissociation energies in Table 6-3 on page 170.

How would you prepare the following alkyl halides from the corresponding alcohols?
