Draw structure
« on: January 21, 2014, 08:00:12 AM »
This was a tough nut to crack: I am going to draw the structures of all monobromo derivatives of 2-methylpentane, C6H13Br, which have the bromine on a primary carbon.

2-methylpentane does not have the formula C6H13Br!

Draw 2-methylpentane. Identify the CH3 groups replace one of these CH3 hydrogens with Br and see what you get repeat for any other CH3 groups you find.
