Question

Consider the following reaction and identify X and Y.

• A. $CH_{3}CH = CH_{2}$ $CH_{3} - \underset{\underset{Br}{|}}{C}H - CH_{2}Br$
• B. $CH_{3}CH_{2}CH_{2}OH$ $CH_{3}CH_{2}CH_{2}Br$
• C. $CH_{3} - \underset{\underset{OH}{|}}{C}H - CH_{3}$ $CH_{3} - \underset{\underset{Br}{|}}{C}H - CH_{3}$
• D. $CH_{3}CH = CH_{2}$ $CH_{3}CH_{2}CH_{2}Br$

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

$CH_{3}CH = CH_{2}$ $CH_{3} - \underset{\underset{Br}{|}}{C}H - CH_{2}Br$

Answer 2

$CH_{3}CH_{2}CH_{2}I\overset{\quad KOH(alc)\quad}{\rightarrow}CH_{3} - \underset{(X)}{CH} = CH_{2}$$$CH_{3} - \underset{(X)}{CH} = CH_{2}\overset{\quad Br_{2}\quad}{\rightarrow}CH_{3} - \underset{\underset{\underset{(Y)}{Br}}{|}}{CH} - CH_{2}Br$$
