Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12

The major product formed in the following reaction is

CH3−CHCH3−CH2Br→CH3OHCH3O−\text{CH}_3 - \overset{\text{CH}_3}{\underset{\text{H}}{\text{C}}} - \text{CH}_2\text{Br} \xrightarrow[\text{CH}_3\text{OH}]{\text{CH}_3\text{O}^-}

A

CH3−CHCH3−CH2OCH3\text{CH}_3 - \overset{\text{CH}_3}{\underset{\text{H}}{\text{C}}} - \text{CH}_2\text{OCH}_3

B

CH3−CHOCH3−CH2CH3\text{CH}_3 - \underset{\text{OCH}_3}{\text{CH}} - \text{CH}_2\text{CH}_3

C

CH3−CCH3=CH2\text{CH}_3 - \overset{\text{CH}_3}{\text{C}} = \text{CH}_2

D

CH3−CCH3OCH3−CH3\text{CH}_3 - \underset{\text{OCH}_3}{\overset{\text{CH}_3}{\text{C}}} - \text{CH}_3
