Answer:
Conversion of 2-methyl-2-butene into a secondary alkyl halide - ROOR, HBr
Conversion of 2-methyl-2-butene into a tertiary alkyl halide - HBr
Explanation:
The addition of HBr to 2-methyl-2-butene occurs in accordance to Markovnikov rule in the absence of peroxide.
According to Markovnikov rule; ''the negative part of the addendum is attached to the carbon atom bearing the least number of hydrogen atoms.'' Following the Markovnikov rule, the tertiary alkyl halide is obtained.
In the presence of peroxide, this rule is not followed and the reaction proceeds in an anti-Markovnikov way to yield a secondary alkyl halide.
