Okay, so we need to start from cyclohexane and get all the way to 1 -2 dichloro -cyclohexane using radical reactions.
00:16
Okay, this is going to take a number of steps.
00:19
But basically, the first thing that happens is we have cl2.
00:23
We react it to h -new, right? and i guess i should show the mechanism for this.
00:30
So we're going to need the mechanism for all these.
00:32
But that's going to create two radicals.
00:37
Okay.
00:38
Then we're going to take one of those radicals.
00:43
Oh, and i should say this is initiation.
00:47
Okay.
00:47
Then we're take one of those radicals, and it will abstract a proton, the cyclohexane, creating hcl, and a cyclohexane radical.
01:06
Okay.
01:07
This is propagation.
01:10
How do we know it's propagation because we had one radical over here, and one radical over there.
01:15
We didn't gain or lose any radicals.
01:17
Okay, well, remember we made two chlorine radicals, so we've still got one left...
