(a) Write the structures or build molecular models of all the isomeric alkyl bromides having the molecular formula C5H11Br.
(b) Which one undergoes E1 elimination at the fastest rate?
(c) Which one is incapable of reacting by the E2 mechanism?
(d) Which ones can yield only a single alkene on E2 elimination?
(e) For which isomer does E2 elimination give two alkenes which are not constitutional isomers?
(f) Which one yields the most complex mixture of alkenes on E2 elimination?
