Treatment of the following stereoisomer of 1-bromo-1,2-diphenylpropane with sodium ethoxide in ethanol gives a single stereoisomer of 1,2-diphenylpropene. H3C H CoH5 CH3CH20 Na* CH3CH2OH C6H5 Br Draw the E2 elimination product of the reaction. Take into account that the starting stereochemistry affects the resulting double bond stereochemistry. • Consider E/Z stereochemistry of alkenes. • Do not show stereochemistry in other cases. • You do not have to explicitly draw H atoms. • In cases where there is more than one answer, just draw one.

The reaction of (2S)-2-chloro-3-methylpentane with sodium iodide yields two products: (2R)-2-iodo-3-methylpentane and racemic 3-iodo-2-methylpentane. Account for the formation of each of these two products. For each product, you should show how it is formed and what that tells you about the mechanism of that specific reaction.

The reaction of (S)-2-bromopentane with potassium cyanide to yield 2-methylpentanenitrile (2-cyanopentane) occurs due to a nucleophilic substitution pathway. The reaction is 100% stereospecific. Please explain what this observation tells about the mechanism of the reaction.
