Q3. 2-Bromopentane, when treated with ‎ alcoholic KOH yields a mixture of three alkenes A, B and C. Identify A, B and C. Which is predominant? ‎ Q4 Which statement below about Sn1 reactions is incorrect? (A) SN1 reactions are stepwise and have intermediates. (B) The slow step in a SN1 reaction is formation of the carbocation intermediate. (C) SN1 reactions have first order kinetics which means only the alkyl halide is involved in the rate limiting step. (D) The products of a SN1 reaction will be a pair of enantiomers. (E) An aprotic solvent is best for Sn1 reactions as they tend to help stabilize carbocation intermediates.

When alkyne A is treated with NaNH2 followed by CH3I, a product havingmolecular formula C6H10O is formed, but it is not compound B. What isthe structure of the product, and why is it formed?
Ignoring stereoisomers, draw the two possible enols for butan-2-one (CH3COCH2CH3), and predict which one is more stable.
Based on the more stable conformation (conformation A), need help providing two mechanisms for the E2 elimination of the protonated version of cis-1 using a general base (B:) to give alkenes 2 and 3. Clearly show which hydrogens meet the stereochemical requirements for E2-elimination Using Zaitsev’s rule, indicate which is favoured. Pictured is also a reaction mechanism to show what the alkenes 2 and 3 are. Thank you :)
Compounds A and B are isomers having molecular formula C5H12. Heating A with Cl2 gives a single product of monohalogenation, whereas heating B under the same conditions forms three constitutional isomers. What are thestructures of A and B?

Addition of HBr to allene (CH2=C=CH2) forms 2-bromoprop-1-ene rather than 3-bromoprop-1-ene, even though 3-bromoprop-1-ene is formed from an allylic carbocation. Considering the arrangement of orbitals in the allene reactant, explain this result.
