Draw the structure of the bromohydrin formed when (E)-2-hexene reacts with Br, H20. Use the wedge hash bond tools to indicate stereochemistry where it exists.

• If the reaction produces a racemic mixture, draw both stereoisomers.

Separate multiple products using the - sign from the drop-down menu.

Explanation:

The addition of a halohydrin to an alkene proceeds via the bromium cyclic intermediate.

The bromine dissociates heterolytically and attacks the (E)-2-hexene yielding the brominuim ion intermediate. This is now attacked by water with a consequent loss of H^+ to yield the final product.

Since the reaction involves a flat and planar carbocation intermediate, racemization is possible, thereby leading to the two stereoisomers shown in the image attached to this answer.

a pan containing water is placed in a positio n where it is exposed to a 10 mile per hour wind. the pan contains a uniform depth of 1.27 cm of water, is quite wide, and has a length of 2.44 m in the wind direction. the water in the pan is at a constant temperature of 15.5 °c.
