Hi, in this question we are having two parts.
00:03
In the first part of the question we are given with this ketone and we have to react it with br2 in presence of acetic acid.
00:11
We can say that treatment of ketones with bromine that is br2 in presence of acid will result in formation of new cbr bond at alpha position.
00:29
It means we can say that this reagent causes halogenation of ketones.
00:35
Therefore, we can draw the major product of this reaction in this manner.
00:40
Since we can say that this is the alpha position and here we have three hydrogen atoms and at this alpha position we do not have any hydrogen atom.
00:50
It is necessary to have hydrogen atom in the alpha position.
00:54
Hence, this is the product of the first part.
00:56
Now, here is the reaction for second part...
