Question- You are required to convert (2R)-3-methyl-5-hexen-2-ol to both the ahkyl bromide and chloride shown below. What reageants would ou use to best accomplish these transformations? Why would it not be a good idea to use HCl or HBr?
The pictures are 4-methyl-1-hexen-5-ol, the alcohol is wedged to 4-methyl-1-hexen-2-Br/Cl, the Br/Cl is dashed.
As much detail as probable is really appreciated
