(a)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The product of the elimination reaction between cis-1-bromo-2-methylcyclohexane with sodium methoxide in methanol.

Interpretation: The product of the elimination reaction between cis-1-bromo-2-methylcyclohexane with sodium methoxide in methanol is to be stated.

Concept introduction: The elimination reaction is the organic reaction in which two substituents are removed from the organic molecule in one step or two steps. The two mechanisms of the elimination reaction are the E1 and E2 mechanisms.

In E2 mechanism, the elimination takes place in one step.

According to the Zaitsev rule, the formation of alkene occurs by the elimination of the hydrogen from the carbon that has less hydrogen.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The product of the elimination reaction between trans-1-bromo-2-methylcyclohexane with sodium methoxide in methanol.
