The major product formed in the following reaction is : CH_3-overset(CH_(3))overset(|)underset(H)underset(|)C-CH_2Broverset(CH_3O^(-))underset(CH_3OH)to

Answer»

`CH_3-overset(CH_(3))overset(|)underset(H)underset(|)C-CH_2OCH_3`
`CH_3-underset(OCH_(3))underset(|)CH-CH_2CH_3`
`CH_3-overset(CH_(3))overset(|)CH=CH_2`
`CH_3-underset(OCH_(3))underset(|)overset(CH_(3))overset(|)C-CH_(3)`

Solution :The nucleophile `(CH_3-overset(-)O)` cannot attack carbon atom bearing Br RADICAL BEACAUSE of a bulky isopropyl radical ATTACKED to it. Therefore elimaination should be major reaction.
