a)
Interpretation:
The product of the reaction has to be predicted and the mechanism of the reaction has to be shown.
Concept introduction:
Elimination reaction: An elimination reaction is removal of two substituents in a molecule and forms
E1 elimination:
b)
Interpretation:
The product of the reaction has to be predicted and the mechanism of the reaction has to be shown.
Concept introduction:
Elimination reaction: An elimination reaction is removal of two substituents in a molecule and forms alkene. An elimination reaction is one or two-step process which based on the mechanism when two substituents removed from the molecule in single step is called E2 reaction. When two substituents are removed from the molecule in two steps is called E1 reaction.
E1 elimination:
Alkyl halide forms carbocation by the removal of bromine followed by the abstraction of the proton from the β-carbon atom in two steps which leads to the product as an alkene.
