12.16 For the following bond cleavages, use curved-arrows to show the electron flow and classify each as homolysis or heterolysis. Identify reactive intermediate produced as free radical, carbocation and carbanion.
(d)
Bond cleavage by using curved-arrows to show the electron flow of the given reaction can be represented as
The reaction intermediate is carbocation. It is a heterolytic cleavage as the bonds break in such a manner that shared electron pair will remain with the one species.
