Predict all the alkenes that would be formed by dehydrohalogenation of the following halides with NaOEt in ethanol and identify the major product obtained in each case. (i) 3-bromo-2, 2,3-trimethylpentane. |

Answer» Solution :According to Saytzeff rule, ALKYL halides undergo DEHYDROHALOGENATION to give more highly substituted alkene as the MAJOR product. Thus, the halide (1),(2) and (3) undergo dehydrohalogenation in the presence of `NaOEt//EtOH` to yield 3,4,4-trimethylpent-2-ene(III) and 1-methycyclohexana (V) REPECTIVELY as more products. (i)
