Abstract The bromination of trans-cinnamic acid was completed to determine dibromide’s stereochemical structure and its mechanism. After the addition of bromine to trans-cinnamic acid‚ the product was identified by its melting point and infrared spectrum resulting in erythro-2‚3-Dibromo-3-phenylpropanoic acid after comparing similar properties. Introduction In this lab‚ the bromination of trans-cinnamic acid was completed to determine dibromide’s stereochemical structure‚ and from there determine
