In this synthesis of
c
and
d
, a primary alkyl halide cannot be used in the first step because the
carbocation will rearrange to a secondary carbocation, which will result in the formation of a methyl-
substituted five-membered ring. A primary allyl halide can be used because the initially formed allyl
cation is stabilized by electron delocalization.
