(b) When compound A is heated, it gives a single stereoisomer of 2,4-hexadiene. Draw the reaction mechanism and indicate which stereoisomer of the product is formed. Explain your answer by discussing the molecular orbitals involved. What term is used to describe this type of reaction? How would you determine if the reaction is stereospecific?
