Reactions of Organic Halides II

Interactive Drawing Problem — Interactive problem: select a halide and a reagent, then draw the expected product.
Note: The molecular drawing editor (JME) requires conversion to a modern JavaScript alternative. The problem selection interface below is functional.
In this problem we shall consider six halide reactants:
1-bromopropane     bromocyclopentane     4-methylbenzyl chloride    
2-chloro-2-methylbutane     1-bromo-3,5-dimethylbenzene     1-chloro-2,2-diethylbutane    

These compounds may be reacted with eight different reagents:
Magnesium
in ether
Lithium
in pentane
C6H5SNa
in acetone
NaI
in acetone
KOCH3
in methanol
NaCN
in methanol
H2O + Acetonitrile
mixed solvents & heat
C5H10N-H
in acetone

Select one halide compound from the first group, and one reagent from the second group.
