Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The products of dehydrohalogenation are formed according to Saytzeff rule. More substituted alkene is the major product.
`CH_3-underset(CH_3)underset(|)(C)H-underset(Cl)underset(|)(C)H-CH_2-CH_3rarr `
`underset("(major product)")(underset("2 - methylpent - 2 - ene")(CH_3-underset(CH_3)underset(|)(C)=CH-CH_2-CH_3 +))`
`underset("(minor product)")underset(("4-methyl pent-2-ene"))(CH_3-underset(CH_3)underset(|)(CH)-CH=CH-CH_3)`
