Structural formula of 2,3,4-Trimethylpentane is:
Correct answer: A. Option A
- A. Option A
- B. Option B
- C. Option C
- D. Option D
Explanation
Option A When haloalkane or alkyl halide with a β- hydrogen atom is heated with alcoholic solution of potassium hydroxide (alc.KOH), the OC2H5 ^- ion acts as a base and eliminate an hydrogen from β- carbon atom then this elimination is known as β- elimination. There is also a simultaneous elimination of halogen atoms from α- carbon. As a result, an alkene is formed.This reaction is also called dehydrohalogenation. Option B Is not the correct answer Option C Cannot be the correct answer Option D Is not the correct answer
