Thank you. So the TsO is actually bonded to the chain like so?
The benzene ring is attached to the carbon, the S is bonded to the ring, and the 3 oxygens are bonded to the sulfur. How does it leave?

If I draw a curly arrow going to the ring it has a carbon bonded to 5 things. Sorry if I am not making any sense

I drew a structure, is that what TsO looks like?

Ignore the H bonded to the O, pretends its just an O

Here is another picture
This is what tosyl looks like

Ok, so now  get it, weird I clicked Tos in my chem sketch and it added it like so. Simply forms an anion.
There is no TsO option.

One more questions.
This is a radical reaction.
So I did the reaction and mechanisms and in the end, I simply replaced the Br with a hydrogen.
How do they get the rings as the products?
I was thinking anti markovnikov addition, but it doesnt add to the double bond, the radical reaction is on the other side.

Sorry I don't follow, what is a radical reaction?
Your document shows the same two reactions

Hi
Sorry fixed it up. Now attached.
I am talking about a radical chain reaction. With initiation and propagation.

It may be better to start a new thread so it is differentiated from the previous one.
I'm sure one of the admins can arrange this

Will now make a new thread. Thanks for helping me out.
