(a)
Interpretation:
More reactive
Concept Introduction:
Elimination from a tertiary alkyl halide leads to more substituted product from secondary alkyl halide. Same way elimination from a secondary alkyl halide leads to more substituted
(b)
Interpretation:
More reactive alkyl halide in the given pair when reacts in an E2 reaction with hydroxide ion has to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
Elimination from a tertiary alkyl halide leads to more substituted product from secondary alkyl halide. Same way elimination from a secondary alkyl halide leads to more substituted alkene than does elimination from primary alkyl halide.
(c)
Interpretation:
More reactive alkyl halide in the given pair when reacts in an E2 reaction with hydroxide ion has to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
Elimination from a tertiary alkyl halide leads to more substituted product from secondary alkyl halide. Same way elimination from a secondary alkyl halide leads to more substituted alkene than does elimination from primary alkyl halide.

- Draw the major E2 elimination products from the attached alkyl halides.arrow_forwardThe alkyl halide below cannot react in an E2 reaction because _____. The alkyl halide is too unreactive. The alkyl halide is too sterically hindered. Chloride is too poor a leaving group. The beta hydrogens are not anti-periplanararrow_forwardA) what is the major product if E2 mechanism is followed in the reaction (A-D) B) what is the complete mechanism with steps to form the major productarrow_forward
