Answer 1

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

the compound that gives the fastest SN2 reaction with sodium methoxide- 1-bromohexane

the compound that gives the fastest SN1 reaction- 3-bromo-3-methylpentane

the compound(s) that undergo an SN1 reaction to give rearranged products- 1-bromo-2,2-dimethylbutane

the compound that is least reactive to sodium methoxide in methanol -

3-bromo-3-methylpentane

the compound(s) that can exist as diastereomers - 3-bromo-3-methylpentane

the compound(s) that can exist as enantiomers- 3-bromo-2-methylpentane
