Question

Alkyl halide can be converted into alkene by: (A) nucleophilic substitution reaction (B) elimination reaction (C) both nucleophilic substitution and elimination reaction (D) rearrangement

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

R-C H2-C H2 X+K O H(alc) arrow R-C H=C H2+K X+H2 O Alkyl halide undergo β- elimination to form alkene ∴ Elimination reaction is correct choice. (i) Nudeophilic substitution reaction is used to convert alcohol into alkyl halide. (ii) In rearrangement reaction one molecule changes into other via internal changes.
