Question
**Alkene Bromination**

The two butane isomers react with \( \text{Br}_2 \). Draw the key reaction intermediates and the product(s); use arrow pushing to explain the stereochemical outcomes of the reactions.

**First Reaction:**

- **Starting Material:** A linear butane isomer with a double bond between the second and third carbon atoms.
- **Reagent:** \( \text{Br}_2 \)
- **Intermediate:** (Blank space for drawing the bromonium ion intermediate)
- **Final Products:** (Blank space for illustrating the dibrominated alkane product with stereochemistry)

**Second Reaction:**

- **Starting Material:** A branched butane isomer with a double bond at one end.
- **Reagent:** \( \text{Br}_2 \)
- **Intermediate:** (Blank space for drawing the bromonium ion intermediate)
- **Final Products:** (Blank space for illustrating the dibrominated alkane product with stereochemistry)

This diagram provides a framework for visualizing reaction intermediates and final products, encouraging a deeper understanding of the mechanistic pathway and stereochemical outcomes typical in alkene bromination.
