How do the products differ when ethyl bromide reacts separately with aqueous KOH and alcoholic KOH ? Name the products.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts


As we treat ethyl bromide with KOH (alc.) elimination/dehydrohalogenation occurs. But in case treated with KOH(aq) substitution reaction takes place, responsible for different products in both cases.
