Question
**Problem 4: Reaction Pathways to Specific Compounds**

*Objective*: Identify the starting alkene and additional reagents needed to selectively synthesize the specified compounds without creating any organic byproducts.

**Compounds to be Synthesized:**

1. **Cyclohexanol:** A cyclohexane ring with a hydroxyl group (OH) attached.
   
2. **2-Bromo-3-butanol:** A four-carbon chain with a bromine (Br) attached to the second carbon and a hydroxyl group (OH) on the third carbon.

3. **1-Chloropentane:** A five-carbon straight chain with a chlorine (Cl) atom on the first carbon.
   
4. **2-Ethoxy-2-methyl-3-chloropropane:** A three-carbon chain with a chlorine (Cl) on the third carbon, connected to a methyl group and an ethoxy group (EtO).

5. **Cyclobutanol:** A cyclobutane ring with a hydroxyl group (OH) attached.

6. **1,2-Dibromo-1-methylcyclohexane:** A cyclohexane ring with two bromine (Br) atoms on adjacent carbons, one of which is also connected to a methyl group.

**Instructions for Solving the Problem:**

- For each compound, identify the appropriate alkene as the precursor.
- Specify the necessary reagents and reaction conditions to achieve the target compound.
- Ensure that no additional organic byproducts are formed during the reaction.

This challenge emphasizes selective synthesis, focusing on precision in the choice of starting materials and reagents.
