Show how $\mathrm{HC} \equiv \mathrm{CH}, \mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{Br}$, and $\left(\mathrm{CH}_{3}\right)_{2} \mathrm{CHCH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{Br}$ can be used to prepare $\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{C} \equiv \mathrm{CCH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}\left(\mathrm{CH}_{3}\right)_{2}$. Show all reagents, and use curved arrows to show movement of electron pairs.
