Elimination of HBr from 2-bromobutane affords a mixture of 1-butene and 2-butene. With sodium ethoxide as base, 2-butene
constitutes 81% of the alkene products, but with potassium tert-butoxide, 2-butene constitutes only 67% of the alkene
products. Offer an explanation for this difference.
Write the appropriate reaction mechanism for the formation of the most stable alkene that will occur as a result of the reactions given below.
МЕСНANISMS
1,2-epoxy-1-methylcyclopentane undergoes both acid-catalyzed and base-catalyzed
opening of the epoxide ring to form two different products.

The reaction occurs with Markovnikov regiochemistry, so the OH group adds to the more highly substituted carbon and the H adds to the less highly substituted carbon. The initial product of the reaction is a vinyl alcohol, also called an enol. The enol immediately rearranges to a more stable ketone via tautomerization.
