The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the given compounds is a vinylic bromide, we need to understand the definitions of allylic and vinylic positions in relation to a double bond in an alkene. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Structure of the Compounds**: - We need to examine the structures of the compounds provided in the question. Each compound will have a double bond (alkene) and a bromine substituent. 2. **Understand Allylic and Vinylic Positions**: - **Allylic Position**: The carbon atom adjacent to the carbon of the double bond. If a bromine atom is attached to this carbon, it is termed an allylic bromide. - **Vinylic Position**: The carbon atom that is part of the double bond itself. If a bromine atom is attached to this carbon, it is termed a vinylic bromide. 3. **Analyze Each Compound**: - For each compound, identify where the bromine is attached in relation to the double bond. - If bromine is attached to the carbon that is part of the double bond, it is a vinylic bromide. - If bromine is attached to the carbon next to the double bond, it is an allylic bromide. 4. **Determine the Correct Answer**: - After analyzing each compound: - If Compound A has bromine on an allylic carbon, it is an allylic bromide. - If Compound B has bromine on a vinylic carbon, it is a vinylic bromide. - If Compound C has bromine on an allylic carbon, it is again an allylic bromide. - The correct answer is the compound where bromine is attached to the vinylic carbon. ### Conclusion: The compound identified as having bromine attached to a vinylic carbon is the correct answer. Based on the analysis, the answer is **Compound B**.
