Chapter 25.8, Problem 21P

The fluoro-substitued geranyl pyrophosphate shown here reacts with isopentenyl pyrophosphate to form fluoro-substitued farnesyl pyrophosphate. The rate of the reaction is less than 1% of the rate of the reaction when unsubstiuted geranyl pyrophosphate is used. What does this tell you about the mechanism of the reaction?

When n-butyl bromide is treated with sodium iodide (Nal) in ethanol (EtOH), the concentration of iodide quickly decreases, but then slowly returns to its original concentration. Provide an explanation for these observations, and identify the final product of the reaction. Olodide displaces the bromide leaving group, and then bromide displaces the iodide leaving group. Olodide displaces the bromide leaving group, and the resulting n-butyl iodide undergoes an E2 elimination.
