Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: The alkyl halide which forms the given alkene as the only product in an elimination reaction is to be stated.

Concept introduction: Alkyl halides undergo elimination reaction in the presence of a base to form alkenes. The mechanism of the reaction depends on the base used. The most substituted alkene is formed as the major product according to Zaitsev rule.
