Answer

Step by step solution

01

Allylic bromination

In allylic bromination, alkenes react with the brominating agent N-bromosuccinimide in the presence of light, which gives a mixture of bromo-substituted products

02

Products

The anti-Markovnikov addition of the given compound A would give the following products:

Allylic bromination of A
