The product (C) in the below mentioned reaction is:

CH3 – CH2 – CH2 – Br
KOH(alc), Δ → B
A HBr → B
KOH(aq) → C

Question

The product (C) in the below mentioned reaction is:

CH3 – CH2 – CH2 – Br
KOH(alc), Δ → B
A HBr → B
KOH(aq) → C

Accepted Answer

Propan-2-ol. The reaction sequence involves the elimination of bromine to form an alkene, followed by hydration, which results in the formation of an alcohol. In this case, the product is propan-2-ol, as the hydration of the alkene leads to the formation of the secondary alcohol.

The product (C) in the below mentioned reaction is: CH3 – CH2 – CH2 – Br KOH(alc), Δ → B A HBr → B KOH(aq) → C
