Selectivity in radical chlorination vs bromination of alkanes

[@rannaghoremoumita926]

Very nice.... but I think you should have drawn two graphs one of primary and secondary radical overlapped to show the difference in energy

[@surajitschemistrylecturefo1360]

I understood upto this.
But my question is in case of chlorination...
Why isobutane gives 63% iso-butylchloride and 37% tert-butyl chloride?

[@Himawari-b3n]

I know your question's answer

[@dhruv5652]

Amazing lecture,

[@OrganicChemistryExplained]

Thanks, glad it was helpful!

[@glitzandglamourgirl1]

is the selectivity temperature dependant or do we see a difference in selectivity upon increasing temperature?

[@OrganicChemistryExplained]

Yes, for kinetically controlled reactions, the selectivity will increase at lower temperature. Below a certain temperature, however, the reaction won't proceed at all.

Thanks for the wonderful lecture

[@OrganicChemistryExplained]

No problem, glad you found it helpful!
