Vedclass · Answer

(C) The reaction proceeds as follows:$1$. The alcohol group is protonated by $HCl$ and leaves as $H_2O$,forming a tertiary carbocation.$2$. This carbocation undergoes a ring expansion (Wagner-Meerwein rearrangement) because the five-membered ring expands to a six-membered ring to form a more stable carbocation.$3$. Finally,treatment with $KOH$ causes dehydrohalogenation (elimination of $H^+$) to form the most stable alkene,which is the major product '$B$'.$4$. The final structure corresponds to the product shown in option $C$.

Column $(I)$	Column $(II)$	Column $(III)$
$(A)$ Methyl isopropyl ether	$(1)$ ${C_6}{H_5}O{(CH_2)_6}CH_3$	$(i)$ $2$-Methoxypropane
$(B)$ Phenyl isopentyl ether	$(2)$ $CH_3-O-CH(CH_3)_2$	$(ii)$ Methoxyethane
$(C)$ Heptyl phenyl ether	$(3)$ ${C_6}{H_5}-O-CH_2CH_2CH(CH_3)_2$	$(iii)$ $1$-Phenoxyheptane
$(D)$ Ethyl methyl ether	$(4)$ $CH_3CH_2-O-CH_3$	$(iv)$ $1$-Methoxy$-3-$methylbutane (or $3$-Methylbutoxybenzene)

In the reaction given below,identify the major product '$B$'.
