Show how the (S,S) and (R,R) stereoisomers of 1-chloro-1,2-diphenylpentane undergo E2 elimination to give the same cis diastereomer of the product.
Predict the products that would result from the following E2 reaction. (Hint: use your models)
Determine the elimination products of the E2 reactions below. Can these products exist as stereoisomers?
i) (2R,3S)-2-bromo-3-ethylhexane + high concentration of CH3O−
ii) (2R,3R)-2-bromo-3-ethylhexane + high concentration of CH3O−
