Identify the structure of the major products `(X)` from among the following :

A

`overset(.)CH_(2)-underset(D)underset(|)CH-underset(CH_(3))underset(|)(C )HCH_(3)`

B

`CH_(3)-underset(D)underset(|)overset(.)C-underset(CH_(3))underset(|)(C)HCH_(3)`

C

`CH_(3)underset(D)underset(|)CH-underset(CH_(3))underset(|)overset(.)C-CH_(3)`

D

`CH_(3)underset(D)underset(|)CH-underset(CH_(3))underset(|)(CH)-overset(.)CH_(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts
