Which product will form when optically active form of `C_4 H_9 Br` is subjected to dehydrohalogenation?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The optically active form of `C_4 H_9 Br `is `CH_3 CH_2 CHBrCH_3 `. 2-Bromobutane on dehydrohalogenation gives 2-butene according to Saytzeff rule.
` CH_3 CH_2 CHBrCH_3 underset(KOH) overset("alcoholic")to CH_3 CH =CHCH_3 +KBr+H_2 O`
