The reaction of 1,3-cyclohexadiene with Br
2
forms 3,4-dibromocyclohexene as the 1,2-addition product
and 3,6-dibromocyclohexene as the 1,4-addition product. The reaction of 1,3-cyclohexadiene with HBr
forms only 3-bromocyclohexene, so it is both the 1,2-addition product and the 1,4-addition product.

a.
Only part
a
involves the reaction of two unsymmetrically substituted reactants. Therefore, only for
part
a
do we need to look at the charge distribution in the reactants to determine the major product of
the reaction.
