Dehydrohalogenation of meso-1, 2-dibromo-1, 2-diphenylethane by the action of sodium ethoxide in ethanol yields (E)-1-bromo-1-2-diphenylechene. Similar dehydrohalogenation of either enantiomer of 1, 2-dibromo-1, 2-diphenylechane yields (Z)-1-bromo-1, 2-diphenylethene. Provide an explanation for the results.

A chemist allows some pure (2S,3R)-3-bromo-2,3-diphenylpentane to react with a solution of sodium ethoxide(NaOCH2 CH3) in ethanol. The products are two alkenes: A (cis-trans mixture) and B, a single pure isomer. Under the same conditions, the reaction of (2S,3S)-3-bromo-2,3-diphenylpentane gives two alkenes, A (cis-trans mixture) and C. Upon catalytic hydrogenation, all three of these alkenes (A, B, and C) give 2,3-diphenylpentane. Determine the structures of A, B, and C; give equations for their formation; and explain the stereospecificity of these reactions.
Reaction of HBr with 3-methylcyclohexene yields a mixture of four products: cis-and trans-1-bromo-3-methylcyclohexane and cis-and trans-1-bromo-2-methylcyclohexane. The analogous reaction of HBr with 3-bromocyclohexene yields trans-1, 2-dibromocyclohexane as the soleproduct. Draw structures of the possible intermediates, and then explain why only a single product is formed in this reaction.

peroxybenzoic acid followed by H30+. Show the reaction intermediates
