Write Newman projections for all three staggered conformations of (R)-2-bromobutane, viewing down the C2-C3 bond. Upon treatment with strong base (e.g., NaOH), three alkene isomers can form. Illustrate which of the above conformations would be expected to lead to two of these isomers, each with a double bond between C2 and C3. Predict which will be the major product and explain why.
