There are two benzylic bromides that give (E)-3,5-dimethyl-2-phenyl-2-hexene on E2 elimination. Draw them.
Given that an E2 reaction proceeds with anti periplanar stereochemistry, draw the products of each elimination. The alkyl halides in (a) and (b) are diastereomers of each other. How are the products of these two reactions related? Recall from Section 3.2A that C6H5 −is a phenyl group, a benzene ring bonded to another group.
I'm having trouble understanding what's wrong with this mechanism I've drawn. Can you assist me in identifying the errors in the drawing? Thank you.
Original Question:
Propose a mechanism to show how 3,3-dimethylbut-1-ene reacts with dilute aqueous H2SO4H2SO4 to give 2,3-dimethylbutan-2-ol.
