the major product in the following reaction is : `CH_(3)CH(Cl)CH_(2)CH_(2)OH overset(KOH (aq))(rarr)`A. `CH_(3)CH=CHCH_(2)OH`B. `CH_(2)=CH-CH_(2)CH_(2)OH`C. D. `CH_(3)-underset(OH)underset(|)(C )H-CH_(2)CH_(2)OH`

Answer» Correct Answer - D
Intra molecular displacement of Cl by OH does not occur because four membered rings are not easily formed. Therefore with aq KOH only hydrolysis occurs. Thus (D) is correct
