a) Briefly explain the reason by showing what kind of reaction mechanism the main product (major) and by-product (minor) will be formed as a result of the reaction of 1 chlorobutane and 2 chloro butane with NaOH, a strong base (nucleophile). b) In the presence of a polar solvent and in the presence of a polar solvent and reacting with sodium ethoxide (NaOC,H5), 2-Bromo-2-methyl propane can be formed when the main product (major) and by-product (minor) will be formed by showing which reaction mechanism will be followed and briefly explain why.

Alcohols react with sulfonyl chlorides to form sulfonate esters. Only the O-H bond of the alcohol is broken in the reaction, and so no inversion of configuration occurs. The resulting sulfonate esters are reactive in SN1 and SN2 reactions since the sulfonate group is a very weak base and is therefore a good leaving group.Draw curved arrows to show the movement of electrons in this step of the mechanism.
