Question

If addition of 1 mol of bromine to 1,3,5-hexatriene yields1,6-dibromo-2,4-hexadiene as a major product then which of thefollowing is true about the reaction conditions and reactioncontrol? highertemperature, thermodynamic control
lowertemperature, kinetic control
highertemperature, kinetic control
lowertemperature, thermodynamic control highertemperature, thermodynamic control
lowertemperature, kinetic control
highertemperature, kinetic control
lowertemperature, thermodynamic control highertemperature, thermodynamic control
lowertemperature, kinetic control
highertemperature, kinetic control
lowertemperature, thermodynamic control

Explanation / Answer

The answer is "higher temperature, thermodynamic control".  I'm not exactly sure why but I would guess because the product has 2 disubstituted alkenes.
