The reaction of (CH_(3))_(2)C(OH)CH_(2)CH_(3) with copper at 300^(@)C

1.	The reaction of (CH_(3))_(2)C(OH)CH_(2)CH_(3) with copper at 300^(@)C gives
Answer» `CH_(3)CO(CH_(3))_(2)` and `H_(2)` `CH_(3)-UNDERSET(CH_(3))underset(\|)(C)=CH-CH_(3)` and `H_(2)O` `(CH_(3))_(2)C = CHCH_(3)` and `H_(2)O` `CH_(3)CH = CHCH_(2)CH_(3)` and `H_(2)` Solution :The tertiary alcohols undergoes DEHYDRATION at `300^(@)C` to form an alkene with maximum number of `-R` groups and water. `CH_(3)-underset(CH_(3))underset(\|)overset(OH)overset(\|)(C)-CH_(2)CH_(3) underset(300^(@)C)overset(Cu)rarr CH_(3)-underset(CH_(3))underset(\|)(C)=CHCH_(3)+H_(2)O`
