Question: Bromoetherification, the addition of the elements of Br and OR to a double bond, is a common method for constructing rings containing oxygen atoms. This reaction has been used in the synthesis of the polyether antibiotic monensin (Problem 21.37). Draw a stepwise mechanism for the following intramolecular bromoetherification reaction.

Question: Less stable alkenes can be isomerized to more stable alkenes by treatment with strong acid. For example, 2,3-dimethylbut-1-ene is converted to 2,3-dimethylbut-2-ene when treated with . Draw a stepwise mechanism for this isomerization process.
