Structure determination
A molecule A (CH3)3CH2CH2Br) was treated with aqueous NaOH to form B. Compound B was treated with H2SO4 and heated to form C. Product C was reacted with Bromine under dry conditions to yield D. Product D has four possible isomers however 2 are favoured. Draw the structures of A-D and the 2 major stereoisomers of D.
