Notes:
The bromine atom is a major chain carrier in the photobromination of toluenes by N-bromosuccinimide. Only an uncomplexed bromine atom can abstract hydrogen atoms from toluenes. The nature of the polar transition state is entirely different from that of solvolytic reactions and the solvent polarity therefore cannot infuence the rates of the bromination.
