A chemist is tasked with converting tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-ol into 4-bromotetrahydro-2H-pyran. The chemist proposed two synthetic pathways to the desired product. Choose the pathway that produces the desired product, circle one and briefly explain your choice. A complete answer will explain how the chosen pathway produces the 4-bromotetrahydro-2H-pyran AND why the other pathway was not chosen. 11 Mais nathway Synthetic Pathway #1 HBr OH Synthetic Pathway #2 1) TsCl, pyridine 2) NaBr
