(b)
Interpretation: The major product and mechanism needs to be determined in the reaction between 2-bromo-2methylpropane with KI in DMF.
Concept Introduction: Nucleophillic substitution and elimination reactions are two types of the reactions, playing important role in organic chemistry. In the nucleophillic substitution reaction, a leaving group is replaced with a nucleophile and in the elimination reaction rearrangement takes place resulting formation of an alkene.
