Question

(E)-3-bromo-3-hexene when treated with $C{H}_3{O}^{⊝}$ in $C{H}_{3}OH$ gives

• A. 3- hexyne
• B. 2-hexyne
• C. 2,3-hexadiene
• D. 2,4-hexadiene

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

2,3-hexadiene

$\left(E\right)-3-$bromo$-3-$hexene when treated with $C{H}_3{O}^{-}$ in $C{H}_{3}OH$ gives $2,3-$hexadiene. A molecule of HBr is eliminated as shown in the above reaction.
