The correct Answer is:
To solve the given reaction and identify compounds X and Y, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the starting compound The starting compound is 1-iodopropane (CH3CH2CH2I). ### Step 2: React with alcoholic KOH When 1-iodopropane is treated with alcoholic KOH, a strong base, it undergoes an elimination reaction (beta-elimination). In this reaction, the base removes a beta hydrogen (the hydrogen on the carbon adjacent to the carbon bearing the leaving group, iodine in this case). - The reaction can be represented as: \[ \text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{I} + \text{alc. KOH} \rightarrow \text{CH}_3\text{CH}=\text{CH}_2 + \text{KI} \] - The product formed is propene (CH3CH=CH2), which is compound X. ### Step 3: React X with HBr Next, we react the alkene (propene) with HBr. This reaction is an electrophilic addition where HBr adds across the double bond. - According to Markovnikov's rule, the hydrogen (H+) will add to the carbon with more hydrogen atoms already attached (the less substituted carbon), and the bromine (Br-) will add to the more substituted carbon. - The reaction can be represented as: \[ \text{CH}_3\text{CH}=\text{CH}_2 + \text{HBr} \rightarrow \text{CH}_3\text{CHBrCH}_3 \] - The product formed is 2-bromopropane (CH3CHBrCH3), which is compound Y. ### Summary of Results - Compound X is propene (CH3CH=CH2). - Compound Y is 2-bromopropane (CH3CHBrCH3). ### Final Answer - X = Propene (CH3CH=CH2) - Y = 2-bromopropane (CH3CHBrCH3) ---
