Consider the reaction sequence given in Fig. P9.86. (Bu 5 butyl group 5 CH3CH2CH2CH2.)

Chapter 9, Problem 9.86

(choose chapter or problem)

Consider the reaction sequence given in Fig. P9.86. (Bu 5 butyl group 5 CH3CH2CH2CH2.) (a) Use what you know about the stereochemistry of bromine addition to propose the stereochemistry of compound B. (b) Is the B S C reaction a syn- or an anti-elimination? Show your analysis. (c) How would the stereochemistry of products change if the E stereoisomer of compound A were carried through the same sequence of reactions? Explain.
