Concept explainers
Write the structure(s) of the major product(s) obtained when 2-chloro-2,3-dimethylbutane reacts with
(a) Sodium ethoxide (EtONa) in ethanol (EtOH) ar 80°C or (in a separate reaction) with
(b) Potassium tert-butoxide (t-BuOK) in tert-butyl alcohol (t-BuOH) at 80°C.
If more than one product is formed, indicate which one would be expected to be the major product.
(c) Provide a detailed mechanism for formation of the major product from each reaction, including a drawing of the transition stare structures.
