Chemical bonding — practice question

The displayed structure is that of coniine. Coniine may be prepared by allowing ammonia to react with a dibromo compound, X. $\text{NH}_3 + \text{C}_8\text{H}_{16}\text{Br}_2 \rightarrow \text{coniine} + 2\text{HBr}$ Which compound is X?

  • A1,1-dibromo-2-propylcyclopentane
  • B1,2-dibromo-2-propylcyclopentane
  • C$\text{Br(CH}_2)_3\text{CHBr(CH}_2)_3\text{CH}_3$
  • D$\text{Br(CH}_2)_4\text{CHBr(CH}_2)_2\text{CH}_3$
