Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Major and minor products must be predicted for the given reaction.
Concept Introduction :
SN2 reaction competes with E2 and SN1 reaction competes with E1.
(b)
Interpretation:
Structures of major and minor products must be predicted for the given reactions.

(e)
Interpretation:
Major and minor product must be predicted for the given reaction.
Concept Introduction :
Tert-butoxide is a strong bulky base which prefers elimination.
(f)
Interpretation:
Major and minor products must be predicted from the given reaction.
Concept Introduction :
