Both reactions 1 and 2 below will result in the formation of 3 -bromo-3-methylpentane. Reaction 1 Reaction 2 Complete the following: Reaction is regiospecific and reaction is regioselective. In order to maximize the yield of 3-bromo-3-methylpentane, a chemistry researcher would carry out reaction b) A Grignard reaction is shown below. Complete the mechanism as follows: Indicate the electrophilic centre of the reactant appropriately. Use curved arrows to show the mechanism for step, a nucleophilic addition (AN) step. Draw the structure of the intermediate \( \mathbf{X} \) in the square brackets. You must include relevant non-bonding electrons and formal charges. Use curved arrows to show the mechanism for step (, a proton transfer (P.T.) step.
