**Which one is the major product of the following reaction?** Reactant: A cyclohexane ring with a chlorine atom and a methyl group attached, reacting with hydroxide (HO⁻). Reaction scheme: \[ \text{Cl} \rightarrow \text{OH}^- \] **Products:** 1. **Structure I** - Cyclohexane ring with an epoxide ring (oxirane) attached. - Also features two attached methyl groups on the epoxide. 2. **Structure II** - Cyclohexane ring with an epoxide ring (oxirane) attached. - One attached methyl group on the epoxide, differing stereochemistry compared to I. 3. **Structure III** - Cyclohexanone derivative with a methyl group. 4. **Structure IV** - Cyclohexanone derivative with a methyl group, stereochemistry differs from III. **Options:** - ○ 50% III and 50% IV - ○ III only - ○ 50% I and 50% II - ○ I only **Analysis:** Choose the product(s) that are formed under the reaction conditions.
