Q.
Consider die following reactions:
(a) $\left( CH _{3}\right)_{3} CC ( OH ) CH _{3} \xrightarrow{\text { cone. } H _{2} SO _{4}}$
(b) $\left( CH _{3}\right)_{2} CHCH ( Br ) CH _{3} \xrightarrow{\text { alc-KOH }}$
(c) $\left( CH _{3}\right)_{2} CHCH ( Br ) CH _{3} \xrightarrow{\left( CH _{3}\right)_{3} O ^{\ominus} K ^{\oplus}}$
Which of these reaction(s) will not produce Saytzeff product ?
Solution:
$\left( CH _{3}\right)_{3} O ^{-} K ^{+}$is incorrect representation of potassium tert-butoxide $\left[\left( CH _{3}\right)_{3} CO ^{-} K^{+}\right]$. So it is possible that it can be given as Bonus
