Free radical halogenation of methane. Use UV light to break Br2 into two Br radicals. A Br radical is reactive enough to steal an H from methane, and that leaves a CH3 radical behind. That CH3 radical will react with an intact Br2 molecule to become CH3Br, and re-create a Bromine radical in the process. • Thus, the bromine radical is a CATALYST. • This can occur over and over again until all of the hydrogen atoms are replaced with bromines. • Check me out: http://www.chemistnate.com
