Draw the structures of the two carbocation intermediates that might form during the reaction of 2 -methylpropene with HBr (Problem 6.42). We'll see in the next chapter that the stability of carbocations depends on the number of alkyl substituents attached to the positively charged carbon-the more alkyl substituents there are, the more stable the cation. Which of the two carbocation intermediates you drew is more stable?
