For practice in recognizing mechanisms, classify each reaction according to the type of mechanism you expect:
1. Free-radical chain reaction
2. Reaction involving strong bases and strong nucleophiles
3. Reaction involving strong acids and strong electrophiles
(a)

Each of these compounds can react as a nucleophile. In each case, use curved arrows to show how the nucleophile would react with the strong electrophile BF₃.

(f) (CH₃)₂S

Which atoms in the enol ether would you expect to react with Br⁺ ?

To which atom of formaldehyde would you expect H⁺ to add?
