1.(s) For each of the following pairs of reactants, (i) draw the predicted product according to
the mechanism written below the reaction arrow. Your answer must account for
stereochemistry. If a racemic mixture is expected, indicate this (you can write "racemic",
"(+,-)" or "(±)"). If a mixture of diastereomers is expected, draw each expected
diastereomer. If you can predict the major diastereomer under the given conditions,
indicate this by writing "major" under that diastereomer. (ii) Draw a complete curved
arrow mechanism that produces your (major) product.
