Dehydrohalogenation of 1-chloro-1-methylcyclopropane affords two alkenes (A and B) as products. Explain why A is the major product despite the fact that it contains the less substituted double bond.
Addition of HBr to allene (CH2=C=CH2) forms 2-bromoprop-1-ene rather than 3-bromoprop-1-ene, even though 3-bromoprop-1-ene is formed from an allylic carbocation. Considering the arrangement of orbitals in the allene reactant, explain this result.
