Given below are two reactions "A" abd "B". They are made to react with aqueous base NaOH.
Which of the following is/are correct
A yields an epoxide while B gives a ketone
For both cases, before rushing to conclusions, see if ring flip yields any possibilities.
That way, if you can make a case for gretaer stability, it should make better sense:
For the trans isomer,
For the cis isomer, elimination happens well:
