Solution
The correct option is D
Let us start with protonating the OH group and the water molecule
departs, leaving behind a secondary carbocation. Before we step
to the rearrangement part, let us find out what products are formed:
It has two locales from where a proton could be abstracted. The
products formed are:
Now, the carbocation would rather rearrange into a more stable,
tertiary carbocation. The tertiary carbocation gives:
