Vedclass · Accepted Answer

Dehydrobromination of $2-$bromopentane gives pent$-1-$ene as the major product.

Vedclass · Answer

(A) The dehydrobromination of $2-$bromopentane follows Saytzeff's rule,which states that the more substituted alkene is the major product. Therefore,pent$-2-$ene is the major product,not pent$-1-$ene. The reaction is as follows: $CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH(Br)-CH_3$ $\xrightarrow{alc. KOH} CH_3-CH_2-CH=CH-CH_3 	ext{ (major)} + CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH=CH_2 	ext{ (minor)}$. Thus,statement $A$ is incorrect.
