An alkyl chloride produces a single alkene on reaction with sodium ethoxide and ethanol. The alkene further undergoes hydrogenation to yield 2-methylbutane. Identify the alkyl chloride from amongst the following :

A

`ClCH_2C(CH_3)_2CH_3`

B

`ClCH_2CH_2CH_2CH_3`

C

`ClCH_2CH(CH_3)CH_2CH_3`

D

`CH_3C(Cl)(CH_3)CH_2CH_3`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`undersetunderset(Cl)(|)CH_2-undersetunderset(CH_3)(|)CH-CH_2-CH_3underset(E_2)overset(C_2H_5O^(-)Na^+)toCH_2=undersetunderset(CH_3)(|)C-CH_2-CH_3overset(H_2//Ni)toCH_3-underset(CH_3)underset(|)CH-CH_2-CH_3`
