For the reaction given below, predict which product will be the major one and by what mechanism it will form:**Reaction:**\[ \text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{OTs} \xrightarrow[\text{DMF}]{\text{NaSH}} \text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{SH} + \text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{CH}=\text{CH}_2 \]**Products:**- **A**: \(\text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{SH}\)- **B**: \(\text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{CH}=\text{CH}_2\)**Options:**- ○ B by SN1- ○ A by SN2- ○ B by SN2- ○ A by SN1- ○ A by E2- ○ B by E2**Explanation:**The question requires predicting the major product formed in this reaction and determining whether it occurs through an SN1, SN2, or E2 mechanism. The reactant is treated with NaSH in a DMF solvent, which often indicates a nucleophilic substitution or elimination reaction. In this reaction, choice of mechanism depends on factors such as the strength of the nucleophile (NaSH in this case), the nature of the solvent, and the structure of the alkyl group attached to the leaving group (OTs).

In given reaction - Sovlent used is DMF which is aprotic and non polar. In reactant —OTs is very excellent leaving group. These two conditions is fit for sn2 and e2 reactions.In Product A , OTs is substituted by SH. So product A is via SN2. In Product B , Only OTs leaves hence this product is formed via E2 reaction.A - SN2 B - E2 Are correct answer.
