The reaction intermediate produced, by homolytic cleavage of a bond is called
The reaction intermediate produced, by homolytic cleavage of a bond is called
Updated On: Jun 6, 2024
- carbene
- carbocation
- carbanion
- free radical
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
In homolytic cleavage, covalent bond is cleaved in such a way that each atom takes its shared electrons with itself and free radicals are formed.

Hydrocarbons - Reaction Mechanism
Hydrocarbons are organic compounds that are entirely made up of only two kinds of atoms – carbon and hydrogen. Typically, hydrocarbons are colourless gases that have very weak odours.
Mechanism of electrophilic substitution reactions:
According to experimental evidences, SE (S = substitution; E = electrophilic) reactions are supposed to proceed via the following three steps:
- Generation of the electrophile
- Formation of carbocation intermediate
- Removal of proton from the carbocation interm
