6. 2-methyl-3-pentanol yields alkenes from direct elimination but is also susceptible to rearrangement. 2- methyl-1-pentene as well as a small amount of 3-methyl-2-pentene (E and Z) can form during the dehydration of this alcohol. Show the two carbocations that could occur because of rearrangements in the boxes below. (1) EZ OH но* 1,2-hydride shift H₂O H 2-methyl-3-pentanol 1.2-methyl shift 3º carbocation (favored) EIZ 2º carbocation
