What stereoisomers are obtained from the following reactions? a. trans-2-butene $+\mathrm{HBr}$ b. $(Z)-3$ -methyl- 2 -pentene $+\mathrm{HBr}$ c. $(E)-3$ -methyl- 2 -pentene $+\mathrm{HBr}$ d. cis-3 -hexene $+\mathrm{HBr}$ e. cis- 2 -pentene $+\mathrm{Br}_{2}$ f. 1 -hexene $+\mathrm{Br}_{2}$
2-Butene exists as a pair of cis-trans isomers. Is cis2-butene chiral? Is trans-2-butene chiral? Explain.
Reaction of cis-2-butene with $m$ -chloroperoxybenzoic acid yields an epoxide different from that obtained by reaction of the trans isomer. Explain.
