A chemist allows some pure (2S,3R)-3-bromo-2,3-diphenylpentane to react with a solution of sodium ethoxide(NaOCH2CH3) in ethanol. The products are two alkenes: A (cis-trans mixture) and B, a single pure isomer. Under thesame 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 structuresof 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.
